Great mystery centering on a Navajo crime scene photographer who is haunted by the ghosts of the victims she photographs. Not as scary as I was expecting it to be, but a satisfying crime procedural told from an interesting POV. Photography fans will enjoy the lists of cameras the main character shots on in the beginning of each chapter.
Explores similar tropes as One Day and Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow but those books are better. Was not rooting for the romantic relationship or liking any of the characters much.
This book felt like a D&D campaign or video game plot in all the best ways. Two plucky, powerful characters are unwittingly thrust into a larger plot and team up to defeat evil and save the worlds. Fun world building and magic system, masterfully plotted. But, it also felt like the characters were always rolling nat 20s to prevail in their encounters and were only defeated if the person they were up against was much stronger. I’ll read the next ones in the series but enjoyed Addie La Rue much more for more complex characters.
Game-changing system for dividing up household labor, but hard to read if you’re not already an overworked mom in a cis het marriage. Get the cards! Would love a second edition incorporating queer couples, housemates, imagining a man or non-parent might be a reader, and cards for elderly caregiving.
