Great read!

Really funny and I love the family dynamics! I laughed a lot with this book, wich doesn't happen a lot for me with books. I loved the main characters a lot.

I do have to say, English is my 3rd language and I had to look up a few words. The author uses really 'fancy' words sometimes in English, but I didn't know what those meant.

I recommend this book to anyone, esp. If you have a reading slump!

It was cute, as I imagined it unfolding like a Clue-style movie. In fact, i would not be surprise if this is optioned for a miniseries or movie. I was a bit annoyed by how it was packaged up so nicely in the end. Maybe I needed a LIIIIITTLE more, something to kind of acknowledge the seriousness of it all. Still a quick, fun(?) read. (Note: I'm also in a sensitive emotional place right now, so maybe sitting in a hospital waiting room reading about a funny manslaughter adventure wasn't the right thing for me in the moment.)

A surprisingly endearing read considering the subject matter. It also requires you to release some common sense processing to enjoy it…

It seemed very wild to me that no one once considered security cameras in the many kerfuffles that occurred in the hotel??? But that would’ve eliminated many plot points pretty quickly so I suppose it made sense to ignore that as a realistic solution.

There were moments that felt repetitive and I did feel the author wanted to do a lot within these pages that wasn’t fully developed. However, I went into this read without many expectations so it kept me entertained throughout the reading experience.
