The Mystery of the Curiosities by C.S. Poe
4.0
This series is getting better and better. I'm so glad I decided to start it.
This second book is much darker than the previous one. Not as gruesome, but the stakes are so much higher and riskier. I loved Sebastian here, but he definitely managed to become the quintessential "how many stupid things do I need to do before someone breaks my face" amateur sleuth. I loved his cleverness, but sometimes he managed to do the most idiotic things (at least he's got Calvin on speed dial). I also loved seeing his more vulnerable, and insecure side, and I'm hoping the next book will focus on that a bit more. No surprises here: I loved Calvin but I really really hope he'll be getting some serious help soon. Loving William, Max and Quinn and I'm quite curious to see if we'll be getting more of Neil too.
I loved the murder mystery: it was so particular and interesting and twisty and totally unexpected. I can't wait to read the third book.
