⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I could not put this book down once the investigation started rolling. That said, the narrator was driving me nuts. Though it kind of makes me laugh considering this is Dame Agatha‘s impression of what goes on inside the mind of a upper class young man. Basically not much. The mystery was absolutely fantastic and I already want to dive back in to find the clues in real time. Thank you a great first #nwyd22 @MatchlessMarie 😁! ⬇️

Zuhkeeyah I‘m going to spread out my #nywd22 list throughout the year. @monalyisha 2y
RaeLovesToRead Haha, yeah Captain Hastings is so much more irritating in the books than on TV 😄 2y
monalyisha Fun! And yeah — you‘ve met the January requirement! Your list is yours to do with as you wish. I‘m glad you like it enough to continue! 2y

Wow! What a fantastic start to my reading year! 🙌🏻 I loved every bit of this book. It has all the YA tropes in all the right places to make it feel comfortable and familiar, but it goes out and deep in all new ways. I loved the fancy European high magic, the use of Arthurian legend, the dark academia setting, and the way Deonn did not shy from confronting all that colonizer history. Plus the inclusion of African syncretic magical traditions!

Clare-Dragonfly First book for #newyearwhodis – thanks @HOTPock3tt and @monalyisha ! And it‘s my #bookspin as well! 2y

Clare-Dragonfly @shanaqui If it helps, this also has an important secondary character who is non-binary! Plus, Cymraeg! 2y
