really fun, light read that's about something, not just a fluff romance. Keeps you very entertained and engaged the whol time. It's in 2nd person POV where the narrator is talking to the reader, so that may throw some people off, but I really enjoyed it. Definitely recommend listening to the audiobook version as it's someone talking to you so it makes it more enjoyable to listen to it. Great chill murder mystery/ family drama book.

I LOVE a whodunit, they truly never get old and if you think they do, you suck. I loved the way this book was broken up, the rules, the humor, everything. The nods to true crime (cough cough jonbenet) were great. Best part was that this book was not scary in the slightest.

A truly dysfunctional family with their fair share of drama and skeletons in the closet. 
There’s no one thing that kept me from loving this book, I think it was just a little too convoluted and “wtf is even happening”  for my taste. I set it down about halfway through and read an entirely different 5-book series before coming back to it. The plot was interesting and the mystery intrigued me enough that I came back to finish it.
