Praise

One of BookBub’s Best Mysteries & Thrillers of Spring
One of CrimeReads‘ Most Ancipated Thrillers of 2023


“[A] smart, sassy serial killer thriller. . . . [An] absolutely superlative queer crime caper that centers female solidarity.” —Criminal Element

“Terrifically off-kilter, veering as it does from laugh-out-loud humor to its hard-edged plot points. . . Gagnon [handles] the comic moments with aplomb. . . Killing Me‘s brisk action keeps the believable surprises coming.” —Shelf Awareness

“The best serial killer entry of 2023 so far, even though Gagnon brings a surprisingly light touch to the subject matter. . . [An] escape odyssey, filled with roguish, comically colorful characters all the way to a desolate, dilapidated motel that makes the Bates Motel look like a five-star. . . Gagnon stakes her claim as the female Carl Hiaasen.” —BookTrib
 
“Gagnon’s neo-noir thriller hits all the right notes, providing an entertaining, escapist ride.” —The Washington Post

“A wild ride of a thriller.” —CrimeReads

“This twisty game of cat and mouse is as addictive as the Vegas Strip.” —Elle Cosimano, author of Finlay Donovan Is Killing It

Killing Me is a twisted humdinger of a book in the best possible way. Thrilling, fast-paced, and funny, this is a page-turner from start to finish.” —Samantha Downing, author of My Lovely Wife

“This quirky thriller, with nicely developed LGBTQ themes of self-love and a sprightly conversational tone, makes tackling gruesome killers feel a little like a romp.” —Booklist

“[A] fun, quirky thriller with a flawed yet likable main character surrounded by a wacky supporting cast. For readers who enjoy a bit of dark humor, like in Jeff Lindsay’s ‘Dexter’ series.” Library Journal

“A serial killer thriller with a light touch.” Publishers Weekly

“For a little levity, Michelle Gagnon’s suspenseful dark comedy has big Stephanie Plum vibes. . . With their chase taking us to Las Vegas, and picking up various kooky supporting characters on the way, this thriller sounds firmly tongue-in-cheek.” Paste Magazine

“If Dexter teamed up with Stephanie Plum, the result would be Killing Me. At the story’s center is Amber Jamison, whose luck somehow manages to only get worse when surviving one serial killer just puts her in the crosshairs of another. The result is an unforgettable, laugh out loud wild ride with an irresistible cast of characters. Murder has no business being this funny.” —Kellye Garrett, author of Like a Sister

“I loved Killing Me. The writing snaps, crackles, and pops. The story is gripping, fresh, and flat out entertaining. Grab this book!” —Meg Gardiner, author of Unsub and Heat 2

“A tense serial killer thriller that’s also hilarious? Count me in. Killing Me is sharp, suspenseful and (dare I say it?) unputdownable. Amber is my new favorite action hero. I’d follow her anywhere — and considering some of the dicey locales she winds up in, that’s saying a lot.” —Alison Gaylin, author of The Collective

“Michelle Gagnon’s Killing Me tickles the funny-bone and tingles the spine from start to finish! Wit and wile infuse her characters and propel the twist-filled narrative through the smarmy underbelly of Las Vegas, ensuring that when the hunted becomes the hunter, it’s the reader who hits the jackpot!” —Fabian Nicieza, author of Suburban Dicks

“You’ll be biting your nails until the very last page! Killing Eve meets Dead to Me—this thriller is a perfect combination of horror, laughter, and sisterhood. Michelle Gagnon has served us a tour de force and I want more.” —Naomi Hirahara, author of Clark and Division

“Cons, chaos, and serial killers collide in this deep dive into the dark underbelly of Vegas.” —Mindy McGinnis, author of The Last Laugh

“Gagnon delivers a quick, quirky game of cat and mouse that hooks and charms from page one. Killing Me is a taut Vegas thriller and a sure bet.” —Madeleine Roux, author of the Asylum series
