Book Review

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

A mix of historical fiction and fantasy elements makes this book a good read for people who are looking for character driven, introspective stories.

First off: SCREAMING AND CRYING. The book was that good.

I thought this was a fantastic follow up to The Liar’s Crown. Meren is a character who has her flaws, but is always trying to do the right thing.

I love Kaufman’s writing style. I was engrossed in this book and couldn’t put it down; there was so much to love about it. The flow especially worked for me in this book.

It’s a little bittersweet to know that this is the last Ruth Galloway book. I’ve been following these books for years — I love the archaeology aspects and adore the mystery.

This book opens with a bang! A very cute bang! Tansy and Gemma are so adorable! I love Tansy and how she deals with life, I feel like starting off with her was a really great way to make the book more relatable.

This feels a bit like a dystopian/modern day world, but with magic. Or limited magic. This is essentially a story of persecution of a group of people.
