Description
Have you ever done something so heinous that you can barely stand to look at yourself? I did, and honestly, I don’t recommend it—especially now that I’m the prime suspect for the murder of my friend Jules.
But you see, Jules wasn’t entirely innocent. She lied. She betrayed, and she collected enemies like souvenirs, and sometimes, I was one of them.
Yet, the question is, did she deserve to die? Probably.
With all the secrets that have been concealed, the truth surrounding Jules’ death is far more complex than it appears, and I intend to confess everything.
One thing to remember, though, they say the devil is in the details, but that’s flawed thinking when people only see the details they want. Which is why no one will notice when I tell them the one detail that matters most…

Trust No One: Nicki Grace Delivers a Killer Debut
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had the great opportunity to read an ARC copy of Why I Killed My Best Friend by Nicki Grace, and I finished it in just two nights!
The story follows Melissa (Mouse) and her best friend Jules, told through dual timelines of the past and present. From the very beginning, it had me questioning everyone and trusting no one, constantly wondering who the killer really is.
I really enjoyed Grace’s writing style and the way she introduced each character. Even though the story revolves around murder, betrayal, and revenge, there’s a clever thread of dark humour that genuinely made me laugh.
The ending delivers not one but two shocking twists, both chilling and brilliant, leaving me on an absolute adrenaline rush.
Why I Killed My Best Friend is a gripping psychological thriller that keeps you turning the pages right to the very end. Nicki Grace, an indie author, truly deserves recognition for her incredible work.
I look forward to her future work 😁

“Why I Killed My Best Friend” by Nicki Grace is dark, suspenseful, and surprisingly funny — a perfect mix of twisted humor and psychological tension. Beneath the sharp dialogue and quick pacing lies a story packed with betrayal, lies, and long-buried secrets.
I loved every minute of this story and couldn’t put it down. A wickedly entertaining read that keeps you guessing until the very end.

This book was a fantastic read! It was hard to put down and kept me guessing the whole time until the very end. The twists were unpredictable and I fount it very entertaining. The mix of light humor and suspense were so fun to read. If you’ve read The Twisted Damsel and The Darkest Dasel this is a must read. This book will tie up all the loose ends. Definitely recommend!

Why I Killed My Best Friend by Nicki Grace
She did it again Nicki knows how to write books that keep you guessing until the last minute. Can someone you call a best friend be guilty of killing you. Mouse drew me in from the beginning and I had to know did she do it and what would make her do it. I love how this book tied in a character from my all time favorite series of hers Twisted Damsel and The Darkest Damsel. Do yourself a favor and read this book and the others you won’t be disappointed. I know there has to be a part two coming.

I absolutely devoured this book. This is a gripping psychological thriller that will have you guessing to the very end and have your mind blown. WOW just WOW! I laughed at times, and had my heart wrenching for Mouse (Melissa) in other times, and so much more.
If you are a fan of Nicki Grace and her Damsel series this book you will LOVE as it ties in with Sidney!I was so excited when I saw Sidney appear and then see a serial killer that appeared in Sidneys story in this one. Makes me want to go back and re-read book #2 of the Damsel series, The Darkest Damsel.

Why I Killed My Best Friend had me locked in from page one. I thought I knew where the story was going—NOPE. Every twist came flying out of left field, and by the time everything fused together at the end? My jaw was on the floor.
I devoured this ARC in two days. Melissa and Jules’ dual timelines kept me suspicious of everybody. Nicki Grace had me side-eyeing every character and trusting NO ONE.
Her writing is sharp, dark, and even funny in the sneakiest ways. And that ending… TWO twists. Both insane. Both brilliant. I had an adrenaline rush trying to process it all.
This thriller is fast, chaotic in the best way, and absolutely unputdownable. Nicki Grace snapped with this one, and I’m already waiting for whatever she does next.

This was an easy five star read! It is the perfect combination of humor, thriller, and break neck twists! It will keep you glued to the page from beginning to end. I highly recommend reading this book!

Nicki has done it again. Why I Killed My Best Friend is a phenomenal addition to the Twisted Damsel universe — and if you loved Sidney, you’re going to fall hard for Mouse. This book is beautifully written, darkly emotional, and absolutely gripping from page one.
Just when I thought I had everything figured out… I didn’t. Not even close. The twists hit hard, the suspense is relentless, and the confusion — in the best, most intentional way — keeps you glued to every chapter. Very rarely does a plot twist actually get me, but this one blindsided me in the most satisfying way.
And that ending? It cut deep. Nicki crafted something raw, sharp, and unforgettable. I may have shed a tear or two — but we don’t need to talk about that.
If you’re a fan of psychological suspense or twisty thrillers, this is absolutely one you shouldn’t miss. Highly, highly recommended.

Twisted, suspense-filled ride from start to finish. Every chapter kept me guessing, and just when I thought I had it figured out — nope. I loved the connections to characters from previous books; it made the whole story feel even more layered and satisfying. Dark, shocking, and addictive!

I absolutely loved the chaos throughout the story. It has it all from chaos, murder and some questionable decisions to trying to figure out who you can trust! I didn’t see the twist at the end at all and felt it was a perfect ending to all the chaos. The character Mouse was mysterious in the best way and added to the storyline. It’s a quick read and you can’t put it down once you start reading!
