Queen B’s Decree: I had the pleasure of reading during the beta process (I know Genna asked me because I’ve seen every episode of Forensic Files) and a reread after edits were done just because I loved it so much.
A murder mystery rom com with an awkward MMC who yearns for the FMC? Tell me what’s not to love.
TEoU was just so well done. I loved the vulnerability of Lila, the humor and support of her group chat, the quiet (and dorky) steadfastness of Theo, the never knowing of who the actual murderer is (y’all, she got me and all my guesses were wrong and who even am I). There’s a perfect balance of plot and mystery mixed with romance and spice—hit me up when you get to a certain Theo scene so we can talk👀.
Genna took two of my favorite things—romance and murder mysteries—and mixed it together in a book I couldn’t put down and already want to read again. I’m 100% on board for book two and honestly can’t wait.
