I have very mixed opinions about this book. On one hand, I enjoyed the mystery of it. There were some interesting suspects, and a lot of twists and turns made the path to the bad guy engrossing. As the meat of the book, I liked it.
On the other hand, there was a moment of weight-shaming that seemed totally unnecessary. But it was small moment, at least. The bigger problem for me was the characters. For the majority of the book, Skye seemed incredibly juvenile instead of the grown woman she was supposed to be. It’s one thing to be a prankster, but her “pranks” were usually over the top and mean spirited. She came across as a shallow Mean Girl. And unfortunately, that characterization seemed to extend equally to her familiar, a bat who seemed equally hateful and mean.
