Book Review #5

This book starts off by introducing a girl called Natalia. She was going to a place overseas ( it doesn’t say where she is going in the book ) so she has a lot of 500 dollar notes in her bag. Before her flight, Natalia decides to go to the bathroom to freshen up a bit. Once she was done going to the bathroom, she heard a noise. The noise was three people’s footsteps and Natalia started to worry. The footsteps got louder and closer by the second. Natalia didn’t know what to do. After a couple seconds, she decided to go out of the bathroom from the opposite that she came in so that she could escape. She started running but by then the three people caught up to her. Within a split second, Natalia had been shot from the back and the bullet went right through her. She fell within seconds onto the-the frosty cold ice. Minutes later she was surrounded in a pool of her own blood. The three guys who shot her quickly ran towards her, grabbed the notes out of her bag and bolted out of there before anyone could see them. The three guys cleaned up the money because it got covered in blood. Once they have cleaned it up they decide to put it in the school’s darkroom so that nobody would find it. Unfortunately, they were wrong.  A girl called Lumikki Andersson went into the school’s darkroom to relax and have some ‘me’ time for a couple minutes and she saw it. Lumikki saw the cash. What will Lumikki do? Will she tell the principal about this? Or will she just keep it to herself? Read Salla Simukka’s, as red as blood book to find out.

I rate this book a 10/10 so far because it is really interesting to read.

I recommend this book for people who like books that leave you in suspense and also for people who like books about murder and crime / violence ( aka me )

What I liked about this book was that it was about murder. There were a variety of sentences lengths which made the book suspenseful and I like to be in suspense.

There was nothing I disliked
