this was a quick little winter thriller/mystery novella. It was by peter swanson so i had to give it a read i always give his books a try. It was cool set during Christmas time in london about an american girl who gets invited to her English friends home for the holidays and we get thrusted into alittle gothic mystery thriller. It was quick and entertaining.

For me idk but this book was the definition of mid. It did have me turning the pages wanting to get to the thrill... but unfortunately there just wasn't one. Nothing groundbreaking just an ok
Christmas thriller. I did enjoy the journal entries and wish we got a bit more even Emma writing in Ashley's diary for me it would've been a cool twist
The characters were flat and not very likable. Speaking of characters there were so many plot holes like why did Emma and Adam stop talking shortly after the murder of Ashley? We are just thrown into the future where Adam is a murderer and Emma decides that because non of these murders benefit her she might as well take her brother down? Like huh?

Bro the plot twist was so interesting. I don’t usually get caught off guard.
Short and sweet Gothic novella coming in at 92 pages. It was okay, not bad, not awe-inspiring. The twist at the end was fairly obvious but still nicely done.

Festive murder mystery, a cozy short read for the holiday season. I wasn’t sure what to expect but it was definitely a shocking/surprising experience.
