dark mysterious

Thank you Sourcebooks Landmark and NetGalley for the eARC of The Last Murder at the End of the World! All opinions in this review are my own.

After loving The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, I have been waiting for Stuart Turton's next mind-blowing mystery. While I was disappointed by The Devil and the Dark Water, the premise of The Last Murder at the End of the World seemed like it was going to be amazing!  

I don't think Turton could ever write a book that is twistier than The 7 1/2 Deaths, but The Last Murder at the End of the World delivered a similar kind of reading experience.  I like going into his books not quite sure what is going on or who to trust.  The Last Murder does an excellent job of slowly revealing details until the story comes together very quickly at the end.  It is better knowing little about this book before reading and trying to avoid spoilers at all cost to make the experience better.
