Middlegame by Seanan McGuire

4.0

One of those intentionally twisty books where I sometimes felt clever for figuring things out, and sometimes felt it was too clever for me and I just wanted to see what happened without having to figure things out. The mood was a little more into the horror-goth aesthetic that I remember from Every Heart a Doorway than what you see in, say, her InCryptid books. Not really my thing. But (some of) the characters and the racing around and the Bay Area scenery definitely were.
Looking back a couple months after finishing it, I waver between 3 and 4, but I'll go with 4 because I dug the ending.
