Awesome...

Gripping mystery novel that revolves around a small cast of characters. Even though we know who committed the murder from the very beginning, the author leaves you in suspense as to what's going to happen next.

I loved the characters and empathized with them deeply. The book centers around the murder investigation, but it also includes sections that touch on philosophy, friendship, and romance. I even learned a little math!

I would say that after the first few chapters, the book progresses slowly until about 65% the way through, at which point I binge-read the rest of it in one sitting. The ending impacted me emotionally and I'll be thinking about it for while.

Great for learners because the sentence structures aren't too complicated, the number of characters is small, and they revisit the same places throughout the novel.
