@EHeavern Honestly I have no idea, obviously I was very lost with the fact that so many different people killed someone - however, I think the multiple murderers made it perfect for the difficulty and challenges of solving the case

[Izzy Fooks-Michnya @IMichnya]

@edison_perry5 I actually did like the ending of the book - I thought it was kind of out of nowhere but because it was so unexpected it started a good conversation. I'm actually interested in continuing to read the series.

Do you think that Isacc could have avoided killing Michael? #WritingAboutTexts

[Izzy Fooks-Michnya @IMichnya]

@MCMikey132 RIGHT!! Especially since the book takes place in roughly 2016, Darren is literally fighting for something that has already been fought (and won) for. It's crazy that more cops/rangers/detectives aren't trying to be more helpful in this case.

@alexbud22 The trash has to have a deeper meaning; the fact that Locke mentions the sweet smell of pine being overpowered by the garbage just goes to show how much trash there really is. If you're in a forest, the main smell should be the plants, not the trash. I bet something is in there

[Izzy Fooks-Michnya @IMichnya]

The first thing I noticed about Locke's writing style is her eye for detail in descriptive imagery. While reading Michael's Autopsy report, I really felt like I could see what was happening. It actually made me a little nauseous while reading #writingabouttexts

@morganh2024 Okay so like, this is kind of a long shot - but what if Darren and Geneva knew each other before - or what if Geneva and Greg had a history, it is a small town so I could see this plot twist happening at some point in the book

[Izzy Fooks-Michnya @IMichnya]

@alexbud22 I was thinking this too!! I hope we see more of Greg and Darrens relationship throughout the book, these two characters seem to have a history that I wanna know more about

[Izzy Fooks-Michnya @IMichnya]

So far I'm a little disappointed with how the first few chapters are playing out. One thing about mystery novels - you can always expect a slow start with hidden clues that seem insignificant. I kinda hate how they don't have the murder weapon - its expected #WritingAboutTexts

[Izzy Fooks-Michnya @IMichnya]

@EHeavern I like trying to figure out the crime as the detectives try to, I think reading BlueBird will be a fun read as I try to figure it out first

[Izzy Fooks-Michnya @IMichnya]

@Ren_Maloney me when authors use symbolism

[Izzy Fooks-Michnya @IMichnya]

As a huge fan of anything mystery (especially NCIS, CSI, L&O) I was surprised by the # of tropes commonly found in television, literature, & film. I especially enjoyed reading about the "house" trope --> the house is NEVER just a house, symbolism at its finest. #WritingAboutTexts

@kylerxu2023 kyler are u being sarcastic about my enthusiasm.

[Izzy Fooks-Michnya @IMichnya]

@ashsuttner Omg, I never noticed that until right now. I don't typically read mystery books but I'm obsessed with shows like NCIS and Criminal Minds - oftentimes, there is an officer in these types of shows who does have a drinking or marital problem... crazy.

[Izzy Fooks-Michnya @IMichnya]

As someone who was raised in a small town, I'm excited to see the little comments about the small town throughout the novel. Since the murders happened in a small town, I'm expecting a lot of small-town hate between characters.

@CritterLarue I think that Cole intended to create a romance novel, so the romance portions of the book are more detailed in comparison to others. After reading the articles I learned that she wasn't too interested in writing about the Civil War. But the impact of the timing IS everything

[Izzy Fooks-Michnya @IMichnya]

@twlucas42 I think there was a huge historical impact on the tension that built throughout the novel as a result of the setting taking place during the civil war. The forbidden love trope that we see in the novel is a direct result of life or death if they get caught, not just a forced end.

[Izzy Fooks-Michnya @IMichnya]

From what we've read so far in the novel, what do you predict will happen in the end? #WritingAboutTexts
