“You know, I’ve always thought you were the bravest person I’ve ever met. Fearless. I don’t know how you do it sometimes. And whenever I’m feeling nervous about anything, I always think to myself, what would Pip do in this situation? But”, he exhaled, “I don’t know if this is the time to be brave, to do what Pip would do.”

The third book in the A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder - series has a way darker tone than the previous two books. Pip has to deal with a lot of trauma (I think this part of the story was done realistically).
While reading As Good As Dead I definitely did not feel the same as I did when I read the first book. The atmosphere in this book is just so much different. And I could not stop to feel sorry for Pip and everything she had to go through.

All in all, the second and the third book are a great addition to A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder, however, I don’t think it’s necessary to read them, because A Good Girl’s guide to Murder is also the perfect standalone book.
