I finished this in one sitting, super quick read which means it kind of skipped over any major plot points that I think would have built more suspense, but it was a nice and engaging story. It can be read as a stand alone but it’s also a direct sort-of sequel to The Appeal and spoils the ending of that book, so kinda bummed I read this one first.

Quick little audio read. Set in a theater troupe. Cute Christmas theme.

I like the epistillary format of this author's writing style. It was nice to read about the same people again that we read in her first book, but I wish there had been a list of characters again since it has been a few months since I read the first book. It took a while to get to the actual crime of the book, but the drama between all of the characters was kind of funny. I did like the multiple different "solutions" to the murder at the end and the kind of moral dilemma the detectives went through.

I thought that this was such a fun and enjoyable murder mystery book to read and found it very easy to get through! I love when books incorporate the mixed media style of writing and I just thought that made the book so much more entertaining and interactive in regards to trying to figure out the mystery with the main characters by reading through the emails, texts, and police transcripts. There were some characters throughout the book that I didn’t find that meaningful or that I had a strong connection to, but other than that I fully enjoyed reading this book and thought it was a fun murder mystery to read for Christmas time!
