The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton
5.0
Aiden Bishop keeps reliving the same day. The day that Evelyn Hardcastle is murdered. Initially he wakes up in a forest with no recollection of where, let alone who, he is. He stumbles upon Blackheath, a manor owned by the family Hardcastle. Aiden soon finds out that in order to break the cycle, he must find the killer of Evelyn. Tricky part, every morning he wakes up in the body of a different guest and there are others in Blackheath with the same goal.
This book is the thriller I’ve been waiting for. It’s Groundhog Day meets a murder mystery dinner party on steroids and I LOVED IT. The premise is so unique in a world where thrillers can sometimes be a bit predictable. Let me tell you, I wasn’t even close to figuring out the ending on this one. It left me with a “Wait, what?” look on my face, followed by several minutes staring off into space in deep thought.
