Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone by Benjamin Stevenson
3.25
3.5 ⭐️ rounded up
Did this book come with trigger warnings? Cause it should.
Maybe I haven’t read a lot of Golden Age mysteries, but I felt really betrayed by narrator when the plot twist was revealed.
I genuinely enjoyed reading this for the most part, and I even tabbed the book and went back and forth pages, writing down my own notes and all.
But I found that those notes were of very little use when Ern started to unravel his deductions. There’s a whole lot of information that wasn’t shared early on that he conveniently pieced together (*coughs* someone’s bottle). That or I wasn’t paying attention.
It felt like some things were also conveniently made possible. Is it even humanely possible to draw dot? (Lol)
This was a fun and clever read, until it wasn’t.
