Complicated

Yes
This was certainly entertaining!
For an adult this book was somewhat predictable, but I still marveled when the plot twists were revealed. I do have to say if a younger me read this book, the little girl who loved mysteries, this probably would have been a 5 star.
I really enjoyed the times the author let us a reader see the evidence through handwritten notes, that really helps with the immersive feeling of solving a crime.
If you are looking for an entertaining change of pace, you should read this!
