The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle

Stuart Turton

DID NOT FINISH: 2%

the story was not giving the vibe i was looking for. it was giving male author too much
adventurous mysterious tense

this is an interesting sequel to the first book. i do like that we got a pov from juliette at the end and the fourth wall breaks.

i need to bleach my eyes. i'm so determined not to dnf any of the books in this series but this was so difficult
adventurous challenging dark emotional tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix

very repetitive during the middle 50% of the book. i do wish we got to see what everything looked like after sera has the twins.

DID NOT FINISH: 4%

i started this but then immediately got overwhelmed by the character names just being dropped everywhere. definitely not a series you can read out of order
adventurous dark emotional mysterious tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix

i actually really enjoyed the story and thought it followed the mystery well enough that i couldn't put things together before the end. that may have been bc fmc did not know all the facts

i wasn't a fan of the insta love aspect

adventurous emotional tense medium-paced

loving nesta's narrator
