It gave “Glass Onion” vibes. It kept me on my toes & I LOVED how diverse each character was. I was not expecting the ending & I loved the mystery behind all of it.

It's Okay
Short story but good. There were almost too many characters and not enough depth in them for me. For a short story this works though. Simple plot and carried out well. It really didn't pick up until the end with a couple shocking twists one right after the other, and then it was done. I would have liked longer story and more details, but good for what it was.

I really liked this book, my one criticism is the author's insistence on telling the same events from multiple viewpoints.

A very improbable Hollywood mystery where the victim is unlikeable and there are complicated family relationships. I'm surprised I finished it all the way to the happy sappy ending.

The writing was certainly cheesy at times. The plot execution and ending left much to be desired.

Sometimes books with many different POVs don’t hook me, but this one did! It was hard to put down because I just wanted to keep reading and know what was going to happen.
