 I'm reviewing The Last Act of Hattie Hoffman Hardcover by Mindy Mejia. Here are my thoughts: 
 ^^ The stage is set in a small mid-western town in America, when aspiring actress Hattie Hoffman is killed. What follows is a murder investigation and how it effects those left behind, and it grabbed me right up to the final scene. (And including, of course!) 
 ^^ The Last Act of Hattie Hoffman is a murder mystery, and told from the point of view of Hattie (the girl who is murdered), Peter, her English teacher and Del, he Sheriff investigating Hattie's murder. 
 ^^ All the cast above play a huge part in this book, and what drew me in was Hattie herself, and the role she played before her murder. She was the main reason I kept reading, not just because I wanted to find out who killed her, but because she was a great character with a strong voice and really shone through like the star she was. 
 ^^ The Last act of Hattie Hoffman is an intriguing psychological thriller/whodunnit. There are, as expected, many twists and turns, leading to the grand finale when the final curtain comes down and the murderer is revealed. 
 Overall: An enjoyable satisfying read, which will keep you guessing right through to the last act!
