This is the book where everything—for basically everyone—goes downhill. Relationships are broken and found—both friend wise and romantic, everything is upped in the dramatics taking simple this and making them a big deal. A lighthearted mystery in a way, then again it could be just because it’s a nostalgic read, however, it reminds me of a cozy mystery. Rosewood is a place where the kids act like adults and the adults act like teenagers. The world building is really good, it gives off the small town vibes really well.
