Jill and the Killers By Olivia Cuartero-Briggs
Jill and the killers #1
Trying to deny that his wife was actually dead and then you find out it s Jill who is trying to accept she s dead because she can t handle the emotions that come with the thought that her mom left her and her dad on purpose Did Jill just assume that her mom had drowned Or was that fear just to bring us to that climax where she has to help Ginger not drown The ending of the story was pretty rushed It felt like there were full sections missing about what happens with Mrs Cunningham and like if O Brien is in the hospital It didn t even show how Jill s coach felt about his mom Aunt grandma I don t remember being the killer The ending with al the boxes in the attic was odd too I know you have to keep the story going somehow but having the dad say Hey if we solve these cases.
Jill and the killersman
Why wouldn t I be Does that sound like normal behavior It comes across as uncaring and heartless No teenager who s lost their mother to a mysterious car accident drowning would ever behave that way and act like their death didn t matter SHE TOOK A YEAR OFF FROM SCHOOL It doesn t make sense And MRS CUNNINGHAM I had a really difficult time understanding 99. Jill and the killers books in order 9% of everything she said All the words are misspelled and make it appear as though she is talking with no teeth or with a severe lisp Just because she is a little old lady doesn t excuse you from using proper grammar Every word out of her mouth was misspelled and hard to follow.

A big thanks to NetGalley and OniPress for giving me the opportunity to read this e ARC of JillandtheKillers Review in Swedish down below I really like the idea of subscribing to a murder mystery it s a fun and unexplored way to tackle the detective genre but I rather not find myself recieving a box like the one Jill got. Book about serial killers Clues are revieled one by one to keep your focused on the target to stay ahead of the main characters I fail every time The side story about Jills missing mother is interesting and gives me several occations of speculation. Book jill and the killers series If there is a sequel I really want to read it because ending the story like this is cruel Gillar verkligen id n med att prenumerera p en mordg ta det r ett underh llande och outforskat s tt att angripa deckargenren p Att det sedan inte blir riktigt som Jill och hennes v nner t nkt sig r ju kanske inte lika underh llande. Jill killers oni press Lagom m nga ledtr dar utportionerade p om p g r att man hela tiden h ller fokus p att f rs ka ligga steget f re huvudpersonerna men jag g r bet varje g ng Sidostoryn om Jills f rsvunna mamma r ocks intressant och blir g rna f rem l f r diverse spekulationer. Jill and the killersnapper cast Vill verkligen l sa en forts ttning f r att avsluta s h r r bara grymt 136 Thank you to Netgalley for providing me with an ARC SPOILERS TO FOLLOWThis was a very interesting story I love a girl detective and it was fun that Jill had a whole gang of girl detectives What was a little confusing was the stuff surrounding Jill s mom Why was Jill so afraid of the water if her mom hadn t actually drowned the police car hadn t gone over the embankment The whole thing leading up to the reveal made it sound like her dad was dealing with grief in different way maybe we can find your mom like that doesn t seem to have any correlation to me Anyways I did enjoy the characters and the story I like how the group worked together 136 I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Jill and the killersync trailer Jill and the Killers is about a girl named Jill who returns to school after a year long absence due to her mother s disappearance after a tragic accident Upon returning to school she finds that all her old friends have moved on Desperate to find some common ground with them again she feighs interest in murder documentaries and crime podcasts and offers to buy the next Cloozy a detective subscription box for 200 that sends you a mystery for you to solve except the box gets mixed up and they end up trying to solve an actual double homicide case. Jill and the killersync trailer The premise of this story is interesting and it s what made me pick this book up but I m extremely disappointed in it The is for the artwork and idea of it but this comic leaves much to be desired The only saving grace for me was the beautiful artwork and the plot twist at the end. Jill and the killers book review What really bugged me early on in the story was the vocabulary and speech used between some of the students in the high school It was gibberish generation z alpha ridiculousness This is a prime example of the younger generations needing to spend time in class and less time on social media The abbreviations and slang are ruining the English language It s sad to see this in an actual published work. Cracker jack and jill Ginger Are you sure you re alright After everything Jill Duh but there is one in particular where Jill crashes her friend enemie s car when trying to avoid the police and she screams for her mom and then says Where are youmom and she s alone I get it she s probably wishing her mom was there but it doesn t come off as a grief ridden moment and it makes the reader question why she s bringing it up at that moment in the first place when she spent the whole book yelling at anyone who will listen that her mom is dead 136 I mostly enjoyed this graphic novel but there were several elements I didn t The dialogue is so bad It s like how bad some of the dialogue was in Life is Strange dialed up to a 10 These characters are meant to be teenagers in high school yet they don t talk like any teenager I ve ever heard speak The mystery of the case was sort of interesting I liked how it has a deep connection to what I assume with be the series overarching plot The plot of this volume was a bit unevenly paced The reveal of the true killer in the end was honestly ridiculous It wasn t even scary it just made me go THAT S the killer What the everloving f ck It was honestly a face palm moment for me The art style is okay but it does the thing a lot of American style comics do Where I can t tell if the characters are meant to be teenagers or not because they re drawn like they re in their late twenties Also I REALLY didn t like the fact that the new girl isn t a fellow teenager but actually a 20 something year old woman I normally wouldn t care but seeing as it s established that she s dating another girl in the group who is very much a teenager and who wasn t aware she s a 20 year old Why on earth would you make this plot choice You could have made it so she dropped out of school for a while at 16 and came back at 17 18 to be the same age as the rest of the cast but keep her backstory. Jill and the killersync trailer Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review 136 The Riverdale teens are backerrrthe Scooby gang The Paper Girls It s a mix bag of all of them in this graphic novel AND it s so so good A murder mystery that you should miss I thought the cover art would reveal how intense the book will be but I was wrong It s a PG 13 but it made the story not lacking if it s not a violent comic It s a good balance of detective and real life drama At first I can t get into the story because of those Gen Z lingos It all clears up when I pass a few pages and the comic gets into business When the comic sways to the drama side I feel that this comic won t satisfied me with the detective side of it feeling that it will be a rush ending Well again I m so wrong The main characters back stories are treated well and their interactions are gold Their chemistry are dynamic and all of them are given enough spotlight to shine Of course Jill is the main protagonist of them all get the lion share of this comic Her missing her mom really added pressure not just her personal and high school life but also her searching for the killer The art is good It really captures the drama action and a bit of horror in the story Nothing brooding or dark to give you the eerie vibe but again it didn t steal any thunder that this book brings The art from the flash backs are my favorite 136 Returning to school after the unsolved disappearance of her mother teenager Jill Estrada can t wait for things to return to normal even as her friends become obsessed with Box Killers a true crime subscription game where each month s unsolved case is custom tailored to the life of its player There s only one catch Jill s game seems to be all too real and when her clues begin to connect the dots to a very real series of disappearances in her hometown Jill and her friends must conquer their fears and own personal struggles to solve the case But can they find the killer before one of their own becomes the next victim Jill and the KillersThe plot was a bit too rushed and the characters weren t overly likeable but overall I did have a good time reading this novel and might continue reading possible sequels 136 Massive thanks to Netgalley and Oni Press for the digital copy. Jill and the killerswap I devoured this in one sitting an absolute page turner Creepy heart felt mysterious funny and great characterization I m so looking forward to reading future installments of this series I cannot wait to see how the cliffhanger unfolds 136 4. Ebook jill and the killers summary 5 rounded up I really liked this I loved the plot and I had no idea who the killer was till its reveal I loved the art style a lot I will say some dialogue was an interesting choice I liked our characters for the most part although some where less lovable than others but I think it was done on purpose very intrigued to see if they ll continue with this series since the ending was fairly open and there are still unanswered questions I would happily read like 20 volumes of this Thank you netgalley and the publishers for an e copy in exchange for an honest review 136 Full disclosure I received a free e ARC for review through Netgalley Content warning for violence and PTSD Jill Estrada seemingly dropped off the face of the earth when her mom disappeared or at least that s what it seemed like to her friends Now a year has passed and Jill has finally convinced her dad to let her return to school Trouble is her friend group has kind of moved on they ve got new slang is any of that really real asking as an adult a mysterious witchy new friend and a new obsession Box Killers a podcast slash IRL game that invites subscribers to solve cold cases. Sizzle and burn by jayne ann krentz Desperate to get back in her friends good graces Jill buys a subscription but what arrives is a little too real and custom tailored to be legit Before long Jill and her friends are right in the middle of an honest to goodness cold case one that heats up with the disappearance of one of their own JILL AND THE KILLERS has the bones of a good story but didn t quite do it for me For starters the villain Kind of silly Especially the reveal The clown getup is over the top and unnecessary. Book jill and the killers book Also I was hella confused about the plot line with Jill s mom Juliet A detective the town s only competent one apparently she disappeared without a trace save for her abandoned patrol car Jill s dad holds out hope that she s still alive but Jill insists that she s dead otherwise she certainly would have found her way back home by now right From the story s beginning Jill is haunted by nightmares and images of a car submerged in water either she s trapped or trying in vain to rescue someone who is As a former competitive swimmer this fear of the water has caused Jill no small amount of distress The way the story unravels we don t learn the details about Juliet until much later I assumed that Jill and Juliet were in a car accident and Jill was unable to save her mom And then with the introduction of Ginger who s an amputee I thought that maybe Ginger lost her leg in an accident for which Jill feels responsible But nope none of this is true Honestly I m still not sure what the nightmares about drowning are supposed to mean other than that they re a manifestation of Jill s grief and PTSD At best it feels like a rather confusing way to convey both 136 Thanks to NetGalley and Oni Press for the advanced copy I didn t quite know what to expect with this one but I really enjoyed it The author s note at the beginning says that she went into writing the story with just the idea of a murder mystery subscription box and it became a story about friendship and grief And Cuartero Brigg s story really does well with its depiction of changing friendships and their complications The story starts post conflict with the lead character Jill re engaging with her friend group a year after her mom went missing She s repressed any hope and grief and just wants things to get back to how they were some semblance of normal Her friends Ginger Cher O Brien and Clyde also are all experiencing their own grief or conflict in some way to varying degrees of severity Because this is mostly Jill s story though we don t get too in depth into the other characters except for maybe Clyde the new girl and semi antagonist Throughout the book Clyde and Jill butt heads and snipe due to lack of communication and misunderstandings Working together on the case continues to raise emotions as well as it stirs up painful memories for both girls The relationship between the two of them is the one I m most interested in seeing of though I think it was wrapped up nicely by the end As to the actual murder mystery there is indeed a couple murders and mysteries but they mostly take second fiddle to the relationship drama and character growth I don t mind this tbh and actually like it in a comic most of the time but this one felt a sudden jolt with the story just ending and the motive laying unanswered And of course it s left with a door to issues or another volume with the reveal at the end and the mystery of Jill s mom still out there I wanted to take a star for the lack of motive reveal but that felt extreme for what s really a drop in the bucket in a mostly fulfilling story. Jill and the killerss trailer The art by Roberta Ingranata is good too I love her background design it s detailed in such a way that makes the book feel quite lively Night scenes are especially well done with great use of shadow and shading just very cool dynamic stuff I really really enjoyed this and am looking forward to hopefully 136
