This book kept my attention and sucked me in every time I sat down to read it. I honestly don’t know if I loved or hated the ending. It somehow ties up everything nicely and leaves a ton of loose ends. I’m obsessed.

A book trying to do too much and ultimately doing none of it well. Also, the audiobook added to this poor review as it was about difficult to follow and to understand the narrator for Caius. Will perhaps reread the physical version and revisit this review.

A really unique and interesting Murder Mystery. Really enjoyed the concept and deep dive into socialite culture.
