The parts of this book that were an actual mystery were great.. but there wasn’t enough of them for me. I would have enjoyed less of Nic’s self-loathing and more mystery sleuthing. It feels like a waste that Jenna died, and it seems entirely out of Nic’s character in that moment. It also is hard for me to believe that they can just dump both of the sisters off at a swamp with no repercussions.. or that Casie’s logical brain would choose going MISSING over being honest. I think All Good People Here is still the shining star. At the very least, this book was an interesting palate cleanser for me.

It wasn’t my jam. Flat, unlikeable characters, disjointed plot pacing, and the ending left me annoyed. But hey, at least the cat that we spend more than one scene with is adopted to a stranger instead of being harmed.
