A death at a school, A trail of clues as haikus Makes rivals team up. It’s just another day at Green Hill Academy. That is, until two boys, Sohum and Suraj, stumble upon the corpse of their classmate! Along with the corpse, they find a journal containing haikus (17-syllable poems) at the scene of the crime. Too bad Sohum and Suraj are like fire and ice! Suraj is popular, sporty and the class topper. Sohum is fat, unpopular and Suraj’s biggest academic rival. Neither of them share the haiku journal with the police, since they want the ‘honour’ of solving the case first. But, in this clash of titans, who will be victorious? Sohum and Suraj soon realise that there is more to the case than meets the eye. As they uncover more and more secrets, they discover more about their classmates, teachers and the tangled web of relations that exists at Green Hill. Can they solve the mystery before the police and stay one step ahead of everyone else? And perhaps, most importantly, can they overcome their greatest hurdles – each other?

Perfect High-School Mystery

~You guys, I think I just found my soulmate book😫😫❤❤❤ ~A story about a murder in a school building??? Yeah, count me in!!!! ~The story revolved around two students, who never really liked each other, were jealous of each other's guts, were trying to solve a murder/suicide case of their fellow classmate. They found him dead in an empty classroom and they found a journal at the crime scene. It was filled with haiku poems written by him. They both use those poems as clues to find out if someone killed him and if yes, then who and why? ~After finishing the first chapter I was like "Woahhh.. didn't see that coming!" And then the next chapter begins with the same dialogue as if the writer read my mind. (see I told ya this might just be my soulmate book) ~The story has wit, dark humor, thrill sarcasm, suspense, frenemies, and a lot more to offer. At some point, a few metaphors were used which amused me. Do you know the technique, Breaking The Fourth Wall? It has this, which was my favorite part. I like it when the narrator has to say something to us. It feels personal. ~Anyways, I just couldn't wait to finish the story and find out the killer. Some chapters had these little cliffhangers at the end that made me want to read it as soon as I can. ~I was gripped by the story right from the beginning. I literally didn't feel bored at any point. I don't know if this falls under the category of dark comedy but if someone asked me, I would say it does. The frenemies duo was at its best. ~If you are somewhere between being a beginner and a reader, this book will take you to the next level. Give this a try.
