Cute & witty & clever! Characters are very lovable & it switches the first person POV among the characters making it a fun read. Gives me similar vibes to the show Only Murders in the Building.

Slow burn (hence the slow paced rating) but I read it quick!! Main character I have a love/hate relationship with but the love interest I loveeeee. I get anxious by the thought of death but this didn’t make me anxious at all regarding that!!
