This has an interesting plot, and I like it being set in early 1900s Los Angeles. It's your standard modern YA book, hitting all the popular formulas, tropes, and characters. The sneak peek intrigued me to buy the complete bok.

After reading this sneak peak not only am I adding it to my TBR but I'm submitting it to my book club to add to our rotation.

This was not very interesting on its own, to be fair. I will be picking up the full length book either way, because the sinopsis itself sounds good, but this was not very gripping.

It was good but wished it was the whole book and not part of it

There was a good plot and characters from what I could tell.

Ich habe mich über das Buch sehr gefreut. Es ist nicht nur fließend zum lesen sondern auch sehr spannend.

This intriguing sneek peek left me wanting more! Stacey Lee is obviously a very talented author and knows how to write a gripping story. After reading these first few chapters I am desperate to find out how it's going to end. A truly clever way to hook a reader ;)

Thank you NetGalley and Penguin Random House (Putnam) for access to the e-copy in exchange for an honest review.

ok I need the rest of the book NOW!! even though it's just a sneak peak, these first five chapters have already caught my interest, I can smell a 5 stars 👀

Having read and loved Lee's previous work I was delighted to see this sneak peek and immediately put a hold on the book at my local library once completed. If the rest is as good as this, I won't be disappointed,

To be fair, I'd almost definitely have purchased this book without reading this sneak peak (I love Stacey Lee) but I am hooked on this book and need to everything that comes next! Lee is an exceptional writer and nails the balance for YA between pacing, romance, and historical fiction - I cannot wait to discuss this with my high school students!

Thank you NetGalley for access to this sneak peek ,
It was gripping from the front page and I read it in one sitting , I can’t wait for the full book to be out , I really want to find out who killed Lulu Wong and if Gemma and May would be able to stop the government from building Union station and displacing the people of Chinatown from their homes

Gemma and May are teo sisters living in LA with their mother in poverty.
They have a small flower business in order to make a living. One day, before heading to the market to sell their flowers they discover a dead body in a dirty stable, belonging to their old friend Lulu wong.

Even though this was a 52 page sneak peek I really enjoyed it. The book was thrilling and has 5 stars potential.
Im really excited to read the whole thing soon.

Author Stacey Lee creates a vivid world in Kill Her Twice. 1930's Hollywood and Chinatown were not places that coexisted without tension. Asian actresses were exotic toys to be played with, but not to be taken seriously.. When the Chow sisters see that the police are not taking the death of their friend, a well known actress seriously, they decide that they will investigate her death themselves.
As I only had a sample of the book to review, I cannot give an opinion on the whole plot. From what I was provided, this is sure to be an intriguing story with historical notes and a wonderful narrative voice. I look forward to reading the whole book!

My thanks to NetGalley and Penguin Group for the advance sample of this work.

What a great start, I can't wait to read the rest of the novel. It was well written and you could get into the vibe for book.

I'm intrigued to read rest of the book. The 1930's charm and the discrimination against Chinese American people is well portrayed.

A suspenseful sneak peek into this murder mystery set in the 1930's, a great setting and good characters leave me wanting the rest of the book.

Set during the Great Depression in California, this murder mystery involves two Chinese American teenage sisters and a dead Chinese-American Hollywood starlet. With their father in a tubercular sanitarium and their mother pregnant, the sisters struggle to manage the family flower business , but get caught up with the murder case of their friend.

This is a good peak into Kill Her Twice and it has made me want to read the rest of the book. I love the setting and the intrigue and so far I really like the characters! Looking forward to reading more

I didn't feel transported to the thirties. The dialogue and expressions felt too modern.
The premise intrigued me, but I couldn't get into it.

I really enjoyed this story. I finished it in a day because I just couldn’t put it down. I think historical fiction and murder mystery make such a great combination. It was interesting to learn about how people in Chinatown were treated in the 1930s. It’s sad to see how much people have had to overcome based on what they look like and even till this day, it’s still a big struggle.

I had so many suspects but in the end, I did not see it coming. I just would have liked for there to be more information on what is gonna happen next to our characters. Of course as the hopeless romantic, I would have loved to see a little bit more romance.

Overall, great book. I was very invested and I would definitely recommend to everyone.

Thank you to the author, the publisher, and NetGalley for this e-ARC.
