Such a cool concept to do a locked-room murder that has fantasy elements AND is funny!

I was very entertained during the whole book. The twists were great, the characters felt unique and the romance sub plot was also very sweet.

Dee was a beautifully written character, despite being funny he was a character that had to deal with his flaws and overcome them.

Oh my, this was a fun read! Fantastic characters, lots of humour, and with a plot twist I absolutely did not see coming. I'm almost sad it's over.

I highly recommend it.

This book was surprisingly really good. It started out kind slow and not super interesting. But as the story progressed it got me hooked. And everytime I thought I had it figured out, it turned out I was VERY wrong. My only wish is that there was more spice.

The leaders of the country's 12 provinces find themselves on a murder cruise. I mean, what isn't to love about that idea? Characters with their own strong beliefs and concerns, and heavy on the distrust.

100% check your trigger warnings for this one. However, there is so much to love about this story. It is well-paced and the perfect length for the story to be told. Nothing felt wasted or out of place in terms of the pacing,

however, I didn't super love the fade to black at the end of the last chapter. That felt really out of place for me.</spoiler
