This was such a unique and captivating read. I loved how this book incorporated some mixed media such as floor plans and transcripts. This book had an intriguing concept and I loved following the characters train of thought as they speculated the potential reasonings for mysterious parts of floor plans and how that started the overall mystery. I’ve never read a book quite like this one and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
