I think it would be great to live in a town that loves costume parties and Halloween this much! Margo is such a quirky character – whether she is working in her family’s costume shop or just running errands, she’s always in costume. When a business man interested in developing the small town into something more modern and profitable threatens to run Margo’s shop out of business, she is understandably angry. When she finds his dead body at a Halloween party she wasn’t invited to, she becomes the prime suspect. Rather than trust the police to find the real killer, Margo decides to investigate on her own. This was a unique story, and a perfect read for this time of year.

Didnt like the ending. Point of view confusing (0 more)
Beautifully written
This is a beautifully written novel from multiple point of views. There's Ellis, a broody young man and Michael, a fun, quirky, lovable chap. There's the most perfect love affair that lasts a brief moment. Then there's Annie, with a bit of Ellis's nature and a bit of Michael's. She should have come between Ellis and Michael but she just fits, and the two become three. I won't give too much away, but I cried, laughed, and was taken on an epic journey. I loved this book. If I had to pick a little niggling fault, it was the ending. I found the POV a little confusing. I wasn't sure who was taking and had to read it a couple of times. Otherwise, amazing. I'll be buying more books from this author.
