The It Girl, the brilliant new murder mystery by New York Times-bestselling author Ruth Ware, has been chosen as one of People magazine‘s best new books.

The review reads: “Freshman year at Oxford was going great—until Hannah found her roommate dead. When the man she helped convict dies in jail 10 years later, lingering doubts drive her back to the world she fled. So many flawed friendships, so many promising red herrings… The pages just turn themselves.”

The It Girl will be released in the US on 12th July and in the UK on 4th August. Pre-order your US copy here, and your UK copy here.
