I've finished "Social Suicide" the 2nd book in her Deadly Cool series by Gemma Halliday.
Product Description
Twittercide: the killing of one human being by another while the victim is in the act of tweeting.
Call me crazy, but I figured writing for the Herbert Hoover High Homepage would be a pretty sweet gig. Pad the resume for college applications, get a first look at the gossip column, spend some time ogling the paper's brooding bad-boy editor, Chase Erikson. But on my first big story, things went . . . a little south. What should have been a normal interview with Sydney Sanders turned into me discovering the homecoming queen –hopeful dead in her pool. Electrocuted while Tweeting. Now, in addition to developing a reputation as HHH's resident body finder, I'm stuck trying to prove that Sydney's death wasn't suicide.
I'm starting to long for the days when my biggest worry was whether the cafeteria was serving pizza sticks or Tuesday Tacos . . . .

My Review:
Hartley Featherstone is trying to get an exclusive with Home Coming Queen nominee Sydney Sanders to tell her side of the story of what happened in the first book Deadly Cool. Sydney agrees to talk to Hartley but when she arrives at the designated spot she finds her dead. Now she is in the middle of another murder and has to prove it's not suicide.
I really love the dynamics between Hartley and Chase because they work well together and you can see the sparks between them.
This was a fun light hearted and humerous romantic YA read which makes pokes fun at the teenage speak and gadgets.
4/5
