Clue but make it gay? That might be the best descriptor of this book. An odd cast of characters, a gloomy, gothic setting, and a bizarre old house set up a great mystery story with a wonderful, spooky atmosphere.
Honestly I don’t really have any complaints about any aspect of this story, I really enjoyed it. I just wasn’t ever quite biting off my nails in anticipation or stress. Still, a really good mystery that I would definitely recommend.
Do you guys ever think about the duality of small towns in books? Like right now I'm reading a small town (sinister) book, but I also have a lot of small town (cozy) books on my Fall TBR.
Do people have a preference? I think I prefer small town (cozy) in the Fall but small town (sinister) in the Winter!

Hahaha I go the incredibly chaotic way of just remembering what page number I’m on (this is not always successful)
Or what are some of your chaotic ways to bookmark?
I've recently found small joys in using cute Pokemon cards as my bookmarks! I dabble in collecting One Piece cards but not Pokemon so I'm not as attached but still love them. I got a bunch of bulk cards from my brother so I've just been slotting them in everywhere that I've lost track who's in where. I think I like the idea that I have cute little Pokemon living in my books now.
