100% agree with you. Nothing particularly original in there. And the framing device with Monique is nothing more than the literary equivalent of clickbait.
Will recommend The Seven Deaths of Eveleyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton. Similar name, but completely different. A lot of original - even clever - things going on in it. Everything the other book failed to deliver.

You are the second one suggesting this. I take it as a sign I have to read it

I’ll third the recommendation. How well the ending landed is a matter of opinion, but this is a thinking person’s book. Very original. And there were at least two characters that I still think about from time to time because I would like to have known more about them. For me, that’s a sign the book did things right.

Ok. That’s it! I’m going to add it to my Amazon cart !
