A fun cozy mystery. I liked the plot around flipping houses and the cat. The point of view chapters from the cat are so cheesy. I don’t know why they were included because it added nothing to the story.

I honestly thought this was going to be more horror based on where the book was shelved at the store. Wasn’t a terrible read, but also won’t continue with the series.

Not even worth a star. Another book club choice that disappoints. Not my jam to begin with, but it definitely falls short as a novel - written like bad fan fiction, purple AI prose, and horrible characters. There’s no plot.
I hate booktok. Never a good book to be had. Thankfully this book club instalment is complete

This was cringe from start to finish. The author has a weird cadence and it took me out of the story.

The ending was a letdown for me. Also, the plot was kinda weak and I wanted more scary/horror aspects.

I used to be a Nora Roberts fan for a lighthearted read with a fun mystery or adventurous side plot. This book was soooo boring. She basically phones it in, if she even writes these at all. Compare this to her key trilogy and it’s not even worth the paper it’s printed on… I wouldn’t even use this as toilet paper.
Nothing happened in 300+ pages. It read like a very boring, middle-aged person’s diary - what they did during the day, how many times they let the animals out to piss, what they shopped for, what they made for dinner, and what they wore. Everything is rehashed ad nauseum, so you basically read about the same event 4 or 5 times within the novel. Sonya needs to discuss the ghostly encounter with her bestie, her dog, her boyfriend, her cousin, her priest, her hairdresser, etc. The romance between the secondary characters happens off page. It was dull, dull, dull. I’d have more fun reading an academic textbook than this junk.
The worst part of this series is that Nora knows it sucks. Her books used to be standalone novels with an overarching story. She ends these on cliffhangers so you come back to the books. Jokes on you, Nora, I took to the high seas for this one. You won’t get another cent from me.
