It was a bit boring. The audiobook narration was a factor. The accents were off and when they were reading from the diary, there was a weird background noise which may have been the turning of pages.

Christmas themed murder mystery novella. This was a good short story set during Christmas time. There has a bit of romance, a bit of thrills, and of course murder. Not much else I can say without giving any spoilers. I definitely recommend.

Meh. It was okay. I feel like I needed more. I know it’s a novella. But, I guess I wish it was longer? I never connected with the characters or felt sucked into the story. I hit the halfway mark & only continued because it’s so short. The twist was did surprise me though.
