I absolutely loved Girl, 11 which is the very definition of unputdownable – I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough as the the pace gathered speed towards a dramatic conclusion.

As her podcast gains more and more attention and she starts to get close to unmasking the killer suddenly he seems to resurface from his twenty year hiatus and Elle finds herself in a race against time to stop more bloodshed. In the past I’ve really enjoyed books that include the format of a true crime podcast (Sadie by Courtney Summers and the exceptional Six Stories series by Matt Wesolowski spring to mind) so I had really high hopes for Girl, 11 and I’m pleased to say my expectations were met and quite possibly exceeded! The story follows Elle Castillo, a podcaster doing a series on the infamous Countdown Killer, a serial killer from the 90’s. Each new victim was a year younger than the last.Įlle must stop the deadly countdown before the killer can claim his next victim. Twenty years ago, he went on a killing spree.
