Episode 72: A Good Girl's Guide - Pippa ...

Kelly & Karen
About this episode

In episode 72 of It's A Clue, we talk about our new favorite sleuth-y book, A Good Girl's Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson! First though, Karen loves Annie Oakley and people singing with gusto, and Kelly was a life-sized paper doll and is chasing happy. Then, on to AGGG2M, which we loved! Let's talk about how cool Pippa is, her similarities and differences to Nancy Drew, and the neat things the book (and audiobook!) did to help immerse the reader into the solve. Also, don't drink suspicious tea.
