...unreliable narrators try my patience, and I'm not sure I buy this depiction of someone (presumably) who has autism. Haven't made up my mind if I'll bother finishing this.

I started this one and put it aside for now. I was rolling my eyes when she went on and on about how much she likes cleaning. I might try it again later.

Yeah, I don't know. It strikes me that the MC is Very Autistic when the plot needs her to be so, and Basically Neurotypical when the plot needs that. And then there's the whole: I saw something in the mirror! when she found the corpse. So. She knows who the killer is and the rest of this book is just bullshit filigree.
