This is the third Kristen Bird book I have read, and although I liked the two previous books better, I did enjoy this one. I found it very intriguing and thought provoking that she wrote from Mrs. Hoffman's perspective. Such a mystery in itself death is, and to put it down in writing is clever. I loved the push and pull of the cultural hot topics. Such smart timing to bring them to life in this way. Overall a good read.
