This is the first book I read in this series and will surely read the others as I liked this one.
It's an entertaining and engrossing story, that made me smile and root for the characters.
I liked the fleshed out cast of characters, the well crafted plot and the setting.
Even if it's the third in a series I had no issues with the plot or the characters.
Recommended.

I think this is quite a good start for a story but I'm in two minds about it: I found the plot enjoyable and entertaining but the style of writing seemed a bit weird to me.
I liked the cast of characters, the background and the solid mystery.
I'm curious about the next instalment in this series.

It's the first book I read by Ruth Ware and won't surely be the last.
I started it at nighttime at my house in the country I couldn't put it down but after a while I had to switch to another books as my setting reflected those of the book and I was quite scared.
It's a creepy, engrossing and well written books that somehow reminded me of The Turn of the Screw.
The plot flows without issue and you cannot help feeling involved in the plot and feeling what Rowan is feeling.
It was a great read, a book I couldn't put down and found it highly entertaining.
I loved the description of the high tech house even and I found it well described even if a bit on the sci-fi side (I work in a high tech company so I know what IOT can do at the moment).
I think that the house is the main characters, fascinating and terrifying at the same time. The other characters are well written and fleshed out even if they're not always likeable.
A very good book, highly recommended.

It's a light and pleasant read with a well researched historical background.
The cast of characters is likeable and the plot flows without issue.
The mystery is solid and, even if I guessed the culprit, it was an engrossing read.
I liked it even if sometimes I found it a bit too light given the historical background.
On the other side I appreciated some elements that are not typical of a cozy mystery, I don't talk about them because I don't want to spoil anything.
Recommended.
