The mystery itself was pretty great. And usually I love books with short chapters, but for some reason this made the book feel like it was dragging on. 

I wasn’t particularly attached to either Maggie or Ethan—so maybe there could be some more building / development there. 

But overall, a fun concept. And a fun Christmystery? Chrystery? (is that a thing?? 👀) read.
