This book was fascinating. Although it took me a little to understand, I really enjoyed it. The idea of waking up in 8 different bodies to solve the mystery is fascinating. There was a lot going on as the book progressed which made it difficult to understand at times, but I enjoyed seeing the different perspectives. I also enjoyed the reveals throughout the book as they kept it interesting even if they were slightly unexpected at times. Overall, the characters and storyline were really interesting. I would love to read this again for the first time, but I think it would be difficult to read it again, knowing how it ends.
