So I clocked who the killer was around chapter 2. I also found every single character to be incredibly annoying. However, if you’re in the mood for a light-hearted cozy murder mystery, then this is a book for you.

I really enjoyed this book! While not as strong as Cerulean, I found the characters charming and the plot heart-warming. 

SPOILERS…
Two points of contention: First, I felt Wallace’s transformation into a better human being happened a bit too abruptly. Second, I have mixed feelings about the ending. While I love a happy ending, I almost felt like the ending went against the whole message of the book.

I was looking for a book that I couldn’t put down and this was it! From the start the book gave off strong WandaVision vibes and I was there for it!
