This was such a great book! Such a cozy winter read, perfect for fall as well! I loved how Milo grew as the story went on, the unexpected twist at the end, and the entire atmosphere of this story.
Moderate: Death and Death of parent
Minor: Animal death, Child death, Gun violence, Panic attacks/disorders, Violence, and Grief

Such a cute holiday mystery! I know it’s for kids, but I do wish the villain had a little more dimension beyond pure evil. I also wanted Clem and Georgie to be lesbians and fall in love rather than fight over the same guy. Seemed way more plausible based on their initial chemistry (and colorful hair!)
Moderate: Child death, Confinement, and Panic attacks/disorders
