I had so much fun with this! I haven’t read a murder mystery moment in a MINUTE (like a sherlock Holmes book back in 6th grade??) so this was just a really interesting and unique way to dive into this genre. At times the fourth wall breaking was a bit much for me and I also found some of the plot points focused in the past confusing or overdone, but overall a very fun and entertaining time and I’m excited for the sequel.
