A fun, quick read. The writing was clunky and on the nose at times, and the mystery was (intentionally?) pretty obvious. But, the atmosphere was cool and I enjoyed the read overall.

Separate note: The New England author inserted a lot of clunky stereotypes about southerners, which left our protagonist aghast as she encountered them. (I have spent my life in Mississippi, South Carolina, Tennessee, and all over Alabama. I have never heard anyone insist on calling the Civil War the War of Northern Aggression. Others might have a different experience than me, but I hate that this was the ay the author chose to introduce us to her southern setting. This is just one example.) I hoped it was heading toward a resolution where our main character learned not to make sweeping assumptions about people, but that didn't seem to be the case. We end with her begrudgingly admitting to visit her new boyfriend's home in Texas. And, for an author who seems to think so highly of herself and her allyship towards the LGBTQ community, her comments about "gaydars" and figuring out who was gay were super awkward and stereotypical.
