Today, I review Beth is Dead, by Katie Bernet! Goodreads/Fable: Ellie Mano Email: hookofabookpodcast@gmail.com TikTok/Instagram: @hookofabook
I first heard about this book through The Next Chapter Society with Interrobang Bookstore, and they gave me an advance copy a few months ago.
I never got around to actually reviewing it, but I did read it and I thought it was a really unique interpretation of Little Women.
If you remember, I reviewed it a few weeks ago for my Teens Guide to Classics series, and it's like a story about family and it's really sweet and there's definitely no thriller aspect, so I was really wondering how the thriller version would come into play.
All of the sisters were super fleshed out, just like they are in the original book.
If you're wondering how Little Women could ever become a thriller, let me read you a summary of Beth is Dead right now.
