Worth the hype! Constantly making you second guess your gut and who killed who and why. Obsessed with how the story wrapped up. A top recommendation for anyone who enjoys a fantastic who dunit

This was the first book of this genre I have read, I went into it basically blind only really knowing the what the description on here gave me but I had heard great things about this author due to having previously had The Paris Apartment recommended to me (which is still on my tbr). I thoroughly enjoyed this book, I was invested in the story the whole way through, I found the writing style and multiple points of view interesting, and thought the descriptiveness, especially of the setting of the book, was very well written. My only thing is that the last few chapters and overall ending of the book felt a little rushed and hastily wrapped up.
