A strange one - 3.5*

I don't love the chapters that don't include the main characters so I skipped some bits and that's why I won't give it 4*.
The murderer was WEIRD. I will be reading the next one but I'm not desperate to read it...I'll read it tomorrow.

So, I guess I just need to stop

believing books when they tell me who the killer is. Because I suspected Karen, but then believed it wasn't. Only for the twist to prove me wrong. But yeah, okay.

I feel like Mia's mental health issues are kind of a mixed bag with their depiction. I appreciated that there were here, but it felt really surface level and just unresolved. Also, the ending of this book felt incredibly rushed.
