Can't believe I made it to the halfway point because this book is just so bloated and overwritten. 50 percent through and the majority of it is not about the central mystery.

I didn't enjoy this book as much as I thought I would.

Thank you so much @annkuch13 ! I am super excited about the books - I have had two of them on my wishlist forever and the third one that I tagged sounds like it is right up my alley. The bookmark is beautiful and you should have heard me scream when I unwrapped the koozie! It's perfect and I will absolutely use it every day! Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness and thanks to @BookishMarginalia for organizing this! #summersantagoespostal

This was a great mystery/thriller with cool intersections of university politics and Washington politics. Carter also openly discusses race and how it intersects with these. The twists in the mystery genuinely surprised me. The plot is cleverly composed. Carter creates a great moody atmosphere the keeps you engaged for the entire novel!

This is turning out to be quite the page turner. At least when the cats let me actually see the pages...
