Synopsis

A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder meets Tell Me Lies in this binge-worthy debut murder mystery about a college student whose senior year takes a dark turn when her exes start turning up dead…Narrated by Andi Arndt.Every time a guy breaks my heart, I write him a eulogy in my journal. It’s kind of my thing—closure through creative mourning. They don't actually die... or, at least, they didn't.Now? These guys aren’t just dead to me, they’re dead to everyone. And I’m the prime suspect.With my senior year at Pembroke College—and my entire future—on the line, I’ve got no choice but to play detective. Unfortunately, that means teaming up with my long-standing frenemy, Asher, who is insufferable and somehow always there when I need him the least. We bicker, we banter, we occasionally almost hook up, but with the body count rising and my name all over the suspect board, there’s no time to get distracted. Between college parties, messy exes, suspicious deaths, and a murder investigation I never asked to be a part of—one thing’s for sure: this is not how I thought my last year would go.Here’s to hoping I can find out who the real killer is... before someone ends up writing my eulogy.“As bingeable as your favorite Netflix series, Emma Simmerman has managed to spin a story that is both spicy and suspenseful, mixed with humor and heart. Chock-full of witty banter, a messy protagonist you can’t help but root for, and an intriguing mystery at the center of it all, HERE LIE ALL THE BOYS WHO BROKE MY HEART is one seriously entertaining debut.” — Stacy Willingham, New York Times bestselling author of Forget Me Not

I binged this in a single sitting. I’m not a huge thriller reader but I’ve been wanting to dip my toes in and this was the perfect choice for that! I loved the romantic element, it was giving enemies to lovers & perfectly toxic and yet… I ATE IT UP! I was rooting for them big time. The mystery/thril......more

Part thriller, part toxic romance, and so much fun. Though I wanted to strangle the FMC, she just couldn’t seem to make the right choice. And Archer reminded me of a few jerks I have dated but he grew on me, in a weird was I was rooting for him. A quick enjoyable read with murder, college life, and......more

3.5 stars. I would describe this as “Death Note” meets “I Know What You Did Last Summer”. Which I think are two very odd things to pair together, but hear me out. This story focuses on Sloane. A college girl who writes “eulogies” for her Exs, to help herself move on from them. Suddenly, those exs st......more
