Death on the Nile meets Fruits Basket? And also everyone is gay? Yes please! This was an absolutely phenomenal book and will easily make my top ten of year. I can already say that for certain.
Voyage of the Damned is a murder mystery that takes place over a 12 day cruise featuring an extremely unique and diverse cast of 12 passengers with secret superpowers.
I was on the edge of my seat nearly the entire time reading! I couldn’t have guessed the details surrounding the heart-racing conclusion. I had my theories and while I did guess the correct suspect in the end, I was still left completely flabbergasted by the reveals. THIS is how you tell a murder mystery!
The incredible amount of representation in this book was awe-inspiring. There was mental health, disability, chronic illness, plus-size, bisexual, trans, non-binary, lesbian, and POC representations, and probably a few others that I missed! A quote from this book reads, “To be fair, most Blessed are usually a little gay.” I loved reading about each and every member of this cast, they were all so vivid and complex and unique!
This truly is a book meant for anyone who has ever felt like they do not belong. You are not nothing.
