Praise for MURDER ON A SCHOOL NIGHT

"This inclusive feminist tale is thrilling, twisty and hilarious . . .I'll never look at menstrual products the same way again!
Fiercely funny, feminist and FUN! I bloody loved it" - M.A. KUZNIAR

'Kate Weston's hilarious YA murder mystery is a must.'- Irish Independent

"Mean Girls meets Midsomer Murders with a dash of Louise Rennison in this genre-blending story... Hysterically funny dialogue and a lighthearted tone. However, what really elevates the goofy capers and over-the-top scheming is how well Kerry and Annie know both themselves and each other. Secrets add depth and complexity to this insightful parody of teenage life. A nuanced, hilarious page-turning romantic mystery" - Kirkus Reviews

"Channeling the 1980s cult classic Heathers right down to the croquet set, Weston flaunts cozy English charm and puerile slapstick comedy in this propulsive mystery . . . The girls' chemistry as best friends and partners-in-crime-solving is energizing. Refreshing attention to sex positivity and period politics combined with Weston's timing-both comedic and plot driven-ensure a laugh-out-loud romp." - Publishers Weekly

'Laugh out loud funny, delightfully gruesome and packed with twists, turns and feminism. I loved every minute of it!' - Amy McCaw, author of Mina and the Undead
