Book cover for The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton

This is a timeloop story about finding out who committed a murder and trying to find the clues to stop it. The protagonist inhabits a different character every day and each character gains access to different details of the day’s events. I thought this was a good idea in theory, but ultimately thought this book was just okay. Too many of the details felt forced and at a certain point, the story became too convoluted for its own good.
