i said in my 2024 resolutions that i wanted to explore more genres & tropes than normal, & i think i did just that with this book. i’ve always loved the idea of a cosy fantasy damore does excellent world building to support this! i can definitely see why this was be a comfort series for someone & although i’m not sure if i would continue it, this is a great opening into the world of the stars hollow/halloween town-esque setting. i love a mystery, the paranormal & a slight bit of romance in my books so in the future i will definitely be exploring this genre further. although the writing can be questionable in places, as well as the characters not as developed as i would’ve liked, this is a must read if you’re looking for an easy read with the cosiest vibe imaginable.
