So much fun。 Very twisty and scary in parts。 I think this is the last book in the series。。。 but I really hope it's not。 I love this world so much！ So much fun。 Very twisty and scary in parts。 I think this is the last book in the series。。。 but I really hope it's not。 I love this world so much！ 。。。more

A YA murder mystery， set in the woods， with a strong female protagonist and her band of high school friends， The Box in the Woods reminded me of one of my favorite YA series， Charlotte Holmes。 Thus， it was unsurprising how much I enjoyed this book！ I was left with some serious FOMO （fear of missing out）， for not having read books 1-3 of the Truly Devious series， but this read exceptionally well as a standalone， and provided enough history to feel like I wasn’t missing too much of Stevie’s back s A YA murder mystery， set in the woods， with a strong female protagonist and her band of high school friends， The Box in the Woods reminded me of one of my favorite YA series， Charlotte Holmes。 Thus， it was unsurprising how much I enjoyed this book！ I was left with some serious FOMO （fear of missing out）， for not having read books 1-3 of the Truly Devious series， but this read exceptionally well as a standalone， and provided enough history to feel like I wasn’t missing too much of Stevie’s back story。 The Box in the Woods is set in a small town on the east coast， recognizable only for its unsolved murder of four teenagers， found dead at a sleepaway camp after being stabbed and shoved into a box in the woods （hints the name）。 After her previous success in solving decades old murders， Stevie is propositioned to join the new owner of the summer camp in working to solve the infamous murders that still surround the town。 With a less than inviting welcome by the townspeople， Stevie sets off to do what so many others before her were unsuccessful at， finding a murderer。 Author， Maureen Johnson， crafts a haunting tale， brilliantly woven and expertly laid out as Stevie delivers a mesmerizing finale。 With loveably unique characters， you can consider me the newest member of the Truly Devious fan club！ *Disclaimer: A review copy was provided by the publisher。 All opinions are my own。 。。。more

This was like a perfect episode of Sherlock。 All of the clues to solve the mystery were there， lurking just out of sight， and we got to watch Stevie put it all together in a Holmesian montage。 We've got thrills， romance， and （of course） CRAFTS！ Adding in the element of a secluded summer camp with a small town atmosphere made it exponentially creepier （and more addictive！）。 To those who haven't read the first 3 books， you could easily start here as nothing from the previous series is spoiled。 Wil This was like a perfect episode of Sherlock。 All of the clues to solve the mystery were there， lurking just out of sight， and we got to watch Stevie put it all together in a Holmesian montage。 We've got thrills， romance， and （of course） CRAFTS！ Adding in the element of a secluded summer camp with a small town atmosphere made it exponentially creepier （and more addictive！）。 To those who haven't read the first 3 books， you could easily start here as nothing from the previous series is spoiled。 Will there be a book 5 or a new series entirely？ Who knows？ But I'll be there to read it if it happens！ 。。。more

This book has an Agatha Christie who-dun-it feel to it。 It is kind of unrealistic in terms of a 17-year-old solving a cold case from 1978 all on her own， but I love a strong female protagonist so I’m all for it。 I needed more Nate in this book and much less David。 Janelle is a great， craft-obsessed sidekick。 I also love that there is a nod to the LGBT+ community with Vi identifying as they/them。 Definitely pick this one up when it comes out on June 15th 2021！ I am ready for another Stevie Bell n This book has an Agatha Christie who-dun-it feel to it。 It is kind of unrealistic in terms of a 17-year-old solving a cold case from 1978 all on her own， but I love a strong female protagonist so I’m all for it。 I needed more Nate in this book and much less David。 Janelle is a great， craft-obsessed sidekick。 I also love that there is a nod to the LGBT+ community with Vi identifying as they/them。 Definitely pick this one up when it comes out on June 15th 2021！ I am ready for another Stevie Bell novel！ Thank you to NetGalley， Harper Collins， and Maureen Johnson for an advance copy of this book！ 。。。more

I loved the Truly Devious serious and was thrown for a loop by the ending。 Imagine my surprise when I saw that Stevie Bell was at it again and this time at Box in the Woods camp。 When I heard this book was coming out I was so excited and beyond thrilled to be approved for an early reader’s edition。 Written very similarly to the first three， this book kept me turning the pages。 Conformist parents of Stevie would never approve of her to go to a murder camp， so with some careful wording of the new I loved the Truly Devious serious and was thrown for a loop by the ending。 Imagine my surprise when I saw that Stevie Bell was at it again and this time at Box in the Woods camp。 When I heard this book was coming out I was so excited and beyond thrilled to be approved for an early reader’s edition。 Written very similarly to the first three， this book kept me turning the pages。 Conformist parents of Stevie would never approve of her to go to a murder camp， so with some careful wording of the new camp owner， Stevie is off to a “fun-filled” summer of camp counseling with her friends。 When really， she will be going under cover to solve one of the biggest crimes in this town’s histories。I loved seeing the “reunion” of the Ellingham friends at summer camp， because that’s exactly what it felt like as a reader。 Instead of solving a murder of the Ellingham family， Stevie and her friends go undercover in a small town to solve a murder that happened to several camp counselors in the woods。 Stevie must get involved in the local town to figure out who “done it” and things start to get dangerous。 What at first glance seems to be a typical， innocent， little small town， may not be so innocent after all。 Who is covering for who and who does Stevie need to look out for as she tries to solve these murders？If you love a good murder mystery you will want to get your hands on this book！ 。。。more

It was a lot of fun being back with Stevie and friends in a new setting。 Something about this was not as gripping as the original trilogy though。 It felt like we spent most of the time in Stevie’s head instead of interacting with her friends and gathering clues。 The big reveal was very random and anticlimactic。 Stevie was piecing things together in her brain without the reader ever knowing what she was actually thinking， so it just didn’t feel as fun as the original three books where clues were It was a lot of fun being back with Stevie and friends in a new setting。 Something about this was not as gripping as the original trilogy though。 It felt like we spent most of the time in Stevie’s head instead of interacting with her friends and gathering clues。 The big reveal was very random and anticlimactic。 Stevie was piecing things together in her brain without the reader ever knowing what she was actually thinking， so it just didn’t feel as fun as the original three books where clues were given to us along the way。This was okay though！ I did not dislike it， but I didn’t lobe it like the others。 It wasn’t my favorite but I’m sure many others will love this。 Thank you NetGalley for an e-arc in exchange for a review！ 。。。more

The Box in the Woods was an excellent follow up to the original trilogy。 I enjoyed revisiting the characters and appreciated that this was a stand alone and was wrapped up。 The mystery was a good mixed with part horror movies。 The twist were surprising and not predictable。 I would love to keep reading about Stevie。

Just a note to start， I have not read the Truly Devious series。 I was told you could read this as a stand alone。 For the most part I think that was right I liked the story it had a Nancy Drew feel and great characters。 I think the most thing that I missed in this one is the connections that correlate to the series as a whole。 Since this one follows the same characters I would have had a better time if I would already know their connections with each other。 Overall， it was a really good story but Just a note to start， I have not read the Truly Devious series。 I was told you could read this as a stand alone。 For the most part I think that was right I liked the story it had a Nancy Drew feel and great characters。 I think the most thing that I missed in this one is the connections that correlate to the series as a whole。 Since this one follows the same characters I would have had a better time if I would already know their connections with each other。 Overall， it was a really good story but I felt that I was missing something。 Go Into This One Knowing: Can be read as a stand alone 。。。more

Stevie Bell is back， and this time it's to solve a whole new set of murders。 After solving one of the most notorious unsolved crimes of the century， while also attending Ellingham Academy， Stevie is back home。 Now， she is stuck living an unprecedented， boring summer working behind the deli counter at the local grocery store。 It's not that Stevie wants there to be murders。 She just likes to solve them， especially cold-cases that no one has been able to figure out for decades， and working behind t Stevie Bell is back， and this time it's to solve a whole new set of murders。 After solving one of the most notorious unsolved crimes of the century， while also attending Ellingham Academy， Stevie is back home。 Now， she is stuck living an unprecedented， boring summer working behind the deli counter at the local grocery store。 It's not that Stevie wants there to be murders。 She just likes to solve them， especially cold-cases that no one has been able to figure out for decades， and working behind the deli counter was not solving crimes。 So， when Stevie receives a letter inventing her to stay at Sunny Pines Summer Camp to help solve the notorious 1978 'Box In the Woods Murders，' Stevie doesn't hesitate。 With just a few negotiations， Stevie and her friends were on their way， posing as counselors by day and crime fighters in their spare time。 Nothing could be better than a summer spent investigating a decades-old murder， or at least that's what she thinks。 The moment Stevie arrives， she knows things are a little off， and it isn't just the quirky， eccentric camp owner; it's as if the town is frozen in time， holding onto the past that sent shock waves throughout it。 But， just as much as the town wants answers， there are those that want the truth to stay buried。 As soon as Stevie opens up the case， she quickly realizes that once you take the top off of the box， there is not putting it back on， and those that want the truth to stay hidden will do anything to keep her quiet Maureen Johnson returns and this time with a whole new cold case to solve。 The Box in the Woods is a beautifully crafted murder mystery with interweaving timelines between the present and 1978， highlighting the casual and free decade of the '70s along with the ease of small-town rumors， misguidance， and coverups。 Maureen Johnson takes readers back to the days of summer camp， along with a few nods to the 80's classic movie Sleepaway Camp。 Readers will be left with the desire to grab a hot dog and a soda and read this one out by the campfire。 This book delivers just what readers want， another perfect page-turning mystery， this book keeps the same thrilling tempo as the prior series without being scary。 While this book may have the same cover as the Truly Devious series， this is a true stand-alone and can be read without reading the previous books。 Fans of Stevie Bell will be delighted that the same amount of detective work， mystery， and overall shock carries throughout this book， making fans of the current day Nancy Drew shout for more。For reviews， giveaways and body paints of book covers please visit my instagram page; https://www。instagram。com/amy_forthel。。。 。。。more
