The Case for Jamie by Brittany Cavallaro

3.25

I wasn’t super invested in the most recent two books of this series, but I appreciated reading about how everything went in the long run with Charlotte and Jamie. This book pretty much wraps up their whole story, so I don’t think I’ll read the next one.

dark emotional sad slow-paced

4.5

The writing style of this book was so Wonderlandian and nonsensical. The witty use of words and made up words absolutely captured my attention. This story was so sweet and so heartfelt. My only gripe is the few moments where the author decided to emphasize Alice’s growing up by talking about her breasts. I feel like that could’ve been done in a much better way, especially as a male author writing a young female character. That part felt very odd to me, and not in a good way. Otherwise, this book was an amazing read and definitely a tearjerker.

This book was absolutely adorable! I loved how fleshed out the characters were as well as the humor they carried in this book. This was quite a fun, quick read!

This book was so funny and held my attention really well. I really enjoyed how the timeline didn’t follow the standards of other fantasy books I’ve read. That made it more “realistic” despite the magic system involved lol. The twists were so well done too! The only complaint I have is that there was quite a bit of gore and violence that I wasn’t expecting. Other than that, this book was fantastic!
