I just didn’t care about the story or the characters… 🤷‍♀️ 

A definite let down from the author’s last book, The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, which I loved. 

One of the weirdest murder mysteries you’ll ever read.

All of these books are insane but amazing 

Started out really strong and interesting, but didn't quite hold that form throughout. Weirdly I found the murder mystery less interesting than I had thought (especially as a mystery fan!), maybe the nature of the characters made me feel more detached? 
The dystopian concepts were cool but never really fully fleshed out, an okay read all the same.

Just as wonderful as the last, and the genre switching is no matter of mine when the writing is this good. In suspense all the way through as the reveals kept coming!

Narration was good, but I wished I had read this. It was a great who-dunnit and the sci-fi aspect was neat! Lots of characters to keep up with though.
