**April Morris** is the main antagonist in the book "*Murder at Homecoming"*.

She was initially portrayed as the good girl sister to her bad brother Brett Norris, but is later exposed for being just as bad as him if not worse, and being a cold, remorseless murderer.

## What Makes Her Pure Evil?

* She planned to inject Gabbie Navarro with capecitipan benzinite, and send her back to the dance clearly drugged in order to humiliate her. However, when Gabbie fell into the pool, April let her drown and die, simply stating "she didn't want to" pull her out.
* She lured Gabbie to the pool with a threatening note and a razor blade.
* She shows zero remorse over her murder of Gabbie, even showing glee and being proud of it.
* Manipulates the school and MC into believing her fake act of sympathy towards Gabbie's death.
* On the night of the Winter Formal, she administers a deadly dose of capecitipan benzinite to Claudia Rhodes, ties her up on the roof of the school, and leaves her to die there.
* While going back to the dance, she finds MC in a supply closet, and tells her they should head back to the dance. After finding out MC knows about her crimes, and that they are trying to take her down, she pulls out a baseball bat and chases her around the school while threatening her.
* After cornering MC on the roof, she gleefully taunts them about how they couldn't save Gabbie, and how Claudia is just another person they couldn't save.
* She taunts MC about how she doesn't have a plan to stop her.
* She says she hates her brother Brett, calls him a jackass, and expresses jealousy that her mom and dad spend all their money getting Brett out of trouble, which shows her apparent motive to avenge Brett is a flimsy excuse for the crimes she has committed.
* She says she is killing Claudia purely because she "lied" about caring about her happiness, which isn't true considering Claudia expressed confusion about why April has been avoiding and ignoring her, and wishes they could be "sisters" again.
* After her evil monologue, she begins bludgeoning MC, but after being stopped by MC and tied up by them, she angrily says it wasn't supposed to end like this.
* After the police and MC's friends enter the roof, she pleads that she didn't do anything, and that she has been framed by MC, only to be foiled by the recording made on MC's phone.
* While she did suffer an seizure from Tyler Woods' "prank", she seems to forgive Tyler, this is never brought up between MC and April, and she does not ever use it to justify her actions.
* Overall, her "tragic" past does not come close to justifying her actions, as her brother was a terrible person who deserved to be jailed, and she seemed to realize that. His brother's girlfriend leaving him is not valid justification for a murder and multiple murder attempts.
