This book was hella funny! I have never fallen in love with a main character so fast. The necromancy world building was top tier and the murder mystery had me swearing with all the twists and turns. At times the explanation of necromancy got overly complicated in some parts and made me lose focus, but maybe that was because I was impatient and wanted the next clue to the mystery.
