Super interesting concept!  I loved how each pov brought new insights and perspectives into the process of solving the murder mystery! I disliked the explanation for the magical time loop, and the reason it existed in the first place. I think it would have been more impactful if the main character had some kind of connection to the house/the people affected by the murder/murders. Anna's backstory ruined her character for me.
