A Good Girl’s Guide to Insanity

Summary:

Her case had been closed for years. Why should Test Tube reopen it now? Everyone knows what happened to Clover. Her boyfriend, Knife Palette had killed her and buried her, so she'd never be found. Then, living with the guilt, committed suicide. But Test Tube isn't so sure that that's the real story. And when her senior year project gives her the perfect opportunity to reopen the lost case of Clover Bell, she puts the risks aside, and will do whatever it takes to prove Knife Palette innocent…Until she starts discovering things that someone in her small town might have wanted to stay undiscovered, and Test Tube herself might be in danger.

Or:

Test Tube tries to solve a murder, but she only gets targeted for one (she solves it too ig)

REWRITE OF A GOOD GIRLS GUIDE TO MURDER BY HOLLY JACKSON! SPOILER WARNING.

Chapter 1: character guide + notes!

Chapter Text

A GOOD GIRLS GUIDE TO MURDER SPOILERS AHEAD. THIS IS YOUR LAST WARNING!

Character guide: (main characters listed only!)

Pippa Fitz-Amobi - Test Tube Vial

Ravi Singh - Paintbrush Palette

Cara - Lightbulb Sparks

Naomi - Microphone Sparks

Lauren - Apple

Sal Singh - Knife Palette

Andie Bell - Clover

Chloe - Salt

Emma - Pepper

Max Hastings - Trophy Laurels

Notes:

1. Test Tube will not have a little brother in this story. I didn't find him necessary enough to find a character to fit him.

2. Everyone will be a little out of character! I tried to match as close as possible, but the personalities will be solely based on the book characters.

3. Test Tube and Paintbrush will start dating before Ravi and Pippa did. This is because I don't know if I'll be doing book 2, but I still want a relationship to be continuous throughout the book.

4. No, I'm not rewriting it word for word. Though it will be the same plot and each chapter will have the same storyline as in the book, I'm not plagiarizing Holly Jackson, I'm rewriting it with different words, different details, different characters.

6. Nickel is Becca Bell, Nickel is a girl. Sorry to anyone offended by gender-swap Nickel. (I'm not sorry, actually)

5. Clover's case will be closed the same way as Andie's was, so spoilers of course.

Stay tuned for chapter one!
