Paint Me Like Your Dead Girls was a fast-paced YA thriller with an intriguing premise and a twist I genuinely didn’t see coming.
The murder mystery aspect kept the tension building, and I enjoyed how the story slowly unravelled as Fliss tried to solve the murders before she became the killer’s next target. The connection between the paintings and the crimes made this a definite page-turner.
That said, while there were parts I really enjoyed, some moments felt a little flat and didn’t fully land for me emotionally. I wanted a bit more depth from certain characters and relationships, especially considering how strong the premise was.
Overall, this was an entertaining and atmospheric thriller, and I’d still recommend it to YA mystery/thriller fans.
Thank you to Cynthia Murphy, NetGalley, and Delacorte Press for the ARC.
