OH MY GOD. I started this movie because I wanted something to play in the background while I did my work, but 15 minutes in I was glued to the TV. The plot twists had my jaw on the floor, it was as if a Holly Jackson book had been converted to a murder mystery documentary. I would definitely watch it again despite knowing all the twists, or force a family member to get there reaction. Such a crime this isn't most popular, I found it better than the actual netflix adaptation for "A Good Girl's Guide To Murder"

I read this book at the age of 13 (the target audience was 8-12, so yeah maybe I've just outgrown the vibe idk), and left it halfway through because of the inconsistent pacing and semi-monotonous storyline (eventually forced myself to finish it). The illustrations are absolutely stunning, the writing and descriptions are vivid, and I believe the author's writing style has a lot of potential. The writing has been very persistent with the medieval setting, and the book has an overall nostalgic feeling to it. The pacing is a bit slow and (more than) a few chapters downright boring. Maybe it was just the genre or niche that wasn't my cup of tea, but in general, I think the plot had potential in ideology that wasn't executed so well throughout the book.
