The beginning and ending. I like the last lines. I don‘t think it‘s spoilery but I‘ll hide it, just in case.

humouress Part of the message throughout this book is that girls and women are treated as secondary to boys and men, who hold the power. Ursu isn‘t over subtle: That is not to say that girls and women did not matter to Illyria: behind every great tapestry was a woman who wove it, just as behind every great sorcerer was a wife to tend to his domestic affairs, a governess to teach his children, a cook to warm his gullet, a maid to keep his fires lit. 1mo

In a mansion, then reform school, now dorm at a prestigious boarding school in Maine, 11 students and staff find themselves trapped during a winter storm surge. Overnight, Headmaster Boddy turns up stabbed and the murderer must be present.
Inspired by the board game, our characters all have secrets that keep the reader guessing at the murderer's identity. I kept wavering as to who I thought it was. Enjoyable if light, looking forward to Book 2.

So glad there‘s a map at the beginning. She must be a fan of the Belgariad - place names include Torak and Kel 😊

humouress I like the cover, with the Dread swirling around the Academy. 1mo
humouress Just got to the part where 12 yo Marya has just decoded the history of the Academy and decides people need to know - so she‘s taking it to the headmaster and teachers. The people who are hiding things from the girls. I couldn‘t look. I had to put the book down in the middle of a chapter. But now I‘m desperate to find out what happened. Reader‘s dilemma 🤗 (edited) 1mo

Stevie is attempting to solve the 1936 kidnapping of Iris and Alice Ellingham (wife and daughter of Albert Ellingham, founder of Ellingham Academy,) and she is trying to solve the murders of Iris, Dolores, Hayes, Ellie and Dr. Fenton This book (3rd in series) wrapped up everything. It was a bit too long, felt like some was filler, but overall a good story and good ending.⬇️
3/5 #SeriesLove2024 @TheSpineView @Andrew65

March #serieslove2024 wrap up

No more books in a series will be read by Sunday so posting my monthly wrap up. I completed the truly devious trilogy, I‘m keeping current on the Click and Heartstopper series, and I‘m continuing on with the Nancy Drew series.

TheSpineView Great job! 2mo
Andrew65 That‘s brilliant, well done 👏👏👏 2mo
