1.0

Was supposed to give it a 2 but let’s settle for 1, here are some points:
- REVIEWERS NEED TO STOP SAYING “this can be compared to” or “this has a strong resemblance to” an Agatha Christie book, THIS IS SOOOO FAR FROM THE BRILLIANCE OF AGATHA CHRISTIE
- the mystery bit was so bad, this book is just a story of people who clearly need to be in therapy, it could be a good book for character study, but not as a murder mystery
- overhyyyyyypppppped
- and going back to was supposed to give it a 2, it’s because I was excited how things will unfold, but it was just soooo bad when it got to that point, it’s very predictable!!!!!!!!!!
- bad book overall, i might still read/listen the other works of the author tho cause i love the cover
- i guess i can give this book a 1-1.5 rating because the narration was good if you’ll listen to the audiobook and the cover design is nice
