Karen’s first review of the year

it was amazing
I laughed a lot and smiled throughout

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The author has sone well-integrated and well-written farce elements in here that are really appealing, in the same vein as The Princess Bride and the movie Clue. I especially liked reading from the different viewpoints. Can’t wait to read the next one!
