PLEASE tell me there is going to be a sequel. Because that last line -- and that epilogue were EVERYTHING.

Wow. Just. Wow. In case you're wondering this is a sapphic dark academia mystery/thriller gothic vibes book and it is GOOD.

Creepy, creepy, creepy! This is a YA horror novel that uses atmosphere and mystery to keep you hooked all the way through the book.

This book was fantastic! I've enjoyed Kingfisher's other works, but this is probably my favorite of them all. This was a dark southern gothic book, and it was interspersed with a scientific main character.

First off, this book drew me in from the start. Meuret’s writing was excellent, and I loved how she framed Josie as a character. She felt so real – and so human. I liked that you could see the facets of her from the start, could actually believe she was sitting next to you. The way this was written felt like you were with a friend, or someone telling you a story. It was intimate in ways, close. 

I've recently started to like horror books more and more. Not if they’re more dystopian though, so when I saw the cover for this one I was very intrigued and curious. I waited quite a bit before I read it because I was so hesitant. I read Horrid last year and I liked it, but wasn’t blown away. This book and cover reminded me a bit of that.
