Najwa walks into her first Scrabble tournament a year after her best friend died at the game table. She's determined to reconnect with her love of the game despite the stares and whispers. Trina was the scrabble community's "it girl" who was the Queen of the Tiles. Now others are jockeying for that position. As secrets are revealed and Najwa tries to investigate and uncover the truth, it's unclear who she can trust and if she can keep it together to win the competition. Each chapter starts with a word and Scrabble score. Najwa is smart, determined, and grieving. A year after her BFF, Trina Low, died during a championship Scrabble game, Najwa Bakri is ready to enter a Scrabble tournament again. But there is a rumour flying round the competitors: was Trina murdered? This was an intriguing mystery though there were times when I wondered whether the characters really were talking like 15 and 16 year olds when discussing their relationships. Also, according to the story's timeline Trina died in November 2021 but a lot of the characters seemed to have been familiar with each other from tournaments for quite some time before that, which seems unlikely. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
