I love a good “who-done-it” murder mystery! Amy Among the Serial Killers had a great band of characters - but I couldn’t get into how Carla was written. It felt it was supposed to be a “New Girl” (tv show) vibe but just made me feel awkward. I loved the supporting characters and plot - but the MC just didn’t vibe for me. Some of the language used to describe the Neurodivergant community made me uncomfortable as well and that has played into my rating.

Side note: The narration was fantastic!


Thank you to NetGalley and Dreamscape media for the advanced listening copy in exchange for my honest review.

I was not aware that there are other "Amy" books, that would have been helpful to know/read beforehand. However, the book can stand on its own. I really enjoyed the story of a serial killer being on the loose! Amy and Carla were great characters, as were the rest of the wacky ones introduced throughout the book.
Was a bit slow in the beginning, but I got more into it as it went along.

This doesn't seem to me to work unless you have read the previous books. Since I hadn't, I set this one aside.
