What a fun middle grade locked room mystery! I loved the empty school setting and the feeling of the storm raging outside while an emotional storm was sweeping the halls. I may have picked out the culprit from the start, but it did not dampen my enjoyment of this middle grade delight. The cooking show element was well done and a great way to get explore who each of the characters were.

I will note, sometimes it was hard to ground myself in which girl's pov we were getting, even though there were two different narrators. Maybe it's because I was listening quickly, but it kept throwing me off. 

Content Note: attempted murder, bullying, loss of a parent (past), middle grade romantic interest, female/female romantic couple
