Come for the mystery, stay for Meyers’ lovely portrayal of Pip’s growing pains.

Despite the few underwritten or all-too-convenient parts, the show is a surprisingly well-balanced cocktail of the common woes of adolescence with the considerably less common hurdles of solving a crime.

If you’re looking for a little bite-sized mystery, helmed by a determined, clever girl on a quest for the truth, I definitely recommend A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder.

There's plenty to like in this well-constructed mystery, particularly Pip, her burgeoning romance with Ravi, and the many, MANY twists and red herrings.

I love a lot this serie, it was very unexpected, the only things that are bad, at least for me, is that it pises me of that Emma literaly brakes in every house, no one sees her and also that she drinks from a stranger who literaly killed her sister. There are some stupid things. Emma did absolutley amazing showing her acting skills and I kinda liked prety much the characters. Althought the hate of some scenes I liked this serie and I hope we can get a next season.

Its really good and acting is on point. Episodes were good but sometimes a little boring but all of the episodes deserve at least 7.5/10 or 8/10.

Emma Myers British accent is so bad that it’s painful to watch. I think she knew that it was bad, so it seems like she’s focusing intensely on it and she speaks very meekly, making her performance a flop. Her lack of confidence with the British accent also means that her character has zero personality!

It was okay. Nothing special, though I had hoped it would be. It had a strong start but... never truly blossomed. Can see the potential though.
