So grab a mug of tea or coffee, a blanket and a seat by the fire and let's get started! ๐
Summary
The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle is a book of mystery and suspense, the first to be written by British author and journalist Stuart Turton. The action takes place in the secluded mansion of Blackheath, where a man, Aiden Bishop, wakes up every day in a different body, without knowing how, with the aim of discovering who killed the young Evelyn Hardcastle, the hostess of the most unusual party ever seen. The day repeats itself with a total of 8 hosts. Each host has a different degree of closeness to Evelyn, but each one is essential to gaining new information and lifting the veil that covers who is responsible for her death. Aiden receives his instructions from a man in disguise whom he doesn't trust, and he knows he must solve the case to escape Blackheath. A man known as 'the footman' is prepared to kill Aiden time and again to prevent him from learning the truth and interfering with the events...
Our opinion
The story has an atmosphere of intrigue, with many twists and surprises, as not everything is straightforward in our protagonist's day. The book is very well written and has an intriguing mystery that keeps the reader guessing until the end.
We really liked the list of guests and staff at the beginning of the book. It really helped us figure out who the main character's new hosts were and who he was interacting with, especially in the beginning. As far as we can tell, there are some English editions that also include a map of the house, but we couldn't find any in Portuguese with this addition ๐.
All in all, this will have been one of our best reads. The book is incredible and the author is to be congratulated for creating such a magnetic story that keeps us hooked and makes us want to solve the mystery with our protagonist. That's why the book gets 5/5๐.

Resumo
As Sete Mortes de Evelyn Hardcastle รฉ um livro de mistรฉrio e
suspense, sendo a primeira obra escrita pelo autor e jornalista britรขnico, Stuart Turton. A trama desenrola-se
na mansรฃo isolada de Blackheath, onde, sem perceber como, um homem, Aiden Bishop, acorda todos

Hardcastle, a anfitriรฃ da festa mais invulgar alguma vez vista. O dia

proximidade diferentes com Evelyn, mas cada um deles รฉ essencial para obter

A nossa opiniรฃo
A histรณria apresenta uma atmosfera de intriga, com muitas
reviravoltas e surpresas, uma vez que nem tudo รฉ linear no dia do nosso
protagonista. O livro รฉ muito bem escrito e tem um enigma intrigante que mantรฉm
o leitor preso atรฉ o final.
Gostamos imenso da lista de convidados e pessoal da casa no inรญcio do livro. Ajudou imenso a localizar quem eram os novos hospedeiros do personagem principal e com quem ele estava a interagir principalmente no comeรงo. Pelo que percebemos, hรก alguma ediรงรตes em inglรชs que apresentam tambรฉm um mapa da casa, mas nรฃo encontramos nenhuma em portuguรชs com essa adiรงรฃo ๐.
No geral, esta terรก sido uma das nossas melhores leituras. O livro รฉ incrรญvel e o autor estรก mesmo de parabรฉns por ter criado uma histรณria tรฃo magnรฉtica que nos cativa e nos faz pensar numa tentativa de resolver o quebra cabeรงas com o nosso protagonista. Por isto o livro leva 5/5๐.
Se ainda nรฃo o leram e o tรชm na vossa TBR peguem nele e surpreendam-se ๐คฏ. Se ainda nรฃo tรชm este livro, adicionem na vossa TBR, porque vale muito a pena!๐๐ป Para aqueles que jรก o leram, qual รฉ a vossa opiniรฃo sobre o livro? Comentem na nossa caixinha abaixo!
