It was such a great read. It felt to me almost like Lemony Snicket’s meets Haunting of Blymanor. I liked all the characters. Signa getting to try to bond and build a relationship with her cousins was so sweet to me. There’s a mystery element. It truly had me like the meme from Always Sunny when I was trying to explain all the possible suspects and their motives to my husband (who did not care). Just before the reveal, as in the page before. I slammed the book shut and started screaming to my husband what I had figured out. Screaming. So overall, I just really enjoyed this book.
