A tween confession, a dead uncle and a very good reason. (They blame the British.) @ninamcconigley.bsky.social's HOW TO COMMIT A POSTCOLONIAL MURDER is sharp, funny & fiercely original. Preorder now! penguinrandomhouse.com/books/779107...

HOW TO COMMIT A POSTCOLONIAL MURDER by @ninamcconigley.bsky.social is mesmerizing. Georgie's narrative voice is powerful, and even though this short book is incredibly weird, I was hooked. I do enjoy a mystery in which the motive, not the killer(s), is the mystery. #ewgc @prhlibrary.bsky.social

Hi, little book!

It’s 1986. Your sister is your soulmate. Your uncle is dead. And colonialism might be to blame. HOW TO COMMIT A POSTCOLONIAL MURDER is not your average coming-of-age novel. penguinrandomhouse.com/books/779107...
