Another great read! Aside from Cleo, it was really great to see some character growth in other quarters - especially Floyd and Harmony. I'm not sure if Cleo is growing or to what extent she's growing, but her family seems to be accepting her more, which I appreciate. It can be tiring, even as a reader, to have her constantly hiding from her family. I like that she can be a little more open with them. For now.

I'm glad that Cleo and Harry were able to pick up where they left off and continue investigating together. I wasn't sure what to expect after the previous book ended. (I don't think that's a spoiler, but I'm always happy to mark it if needed). And even more exciting, I learned that the next book is coming out in December! So I get to continue the story sooner rather than later.
