I’ve read about 6 books in the last couple months and none have had the effect on me that this one did. I am still thinking about it weeks later. Definitely read the trigger warnings before reading the book but if you can hack it, it’s well worth it. Beautifully written and developed, I really felt for the main character (and truly despised the antagonist) and couldn’t put it down

I really wanted to like this book, it looked and sounded great and I love the dark academia vibes. The writing is really well done aside from the overuse of the word “askance” but besides that there isn’t much to it…no real plot/storyline and therefore I couldn’t stay focused on it, usually I read a book in 2-3 days but this took me over 2 weeks to finish and it’s barely 400 pages. Pretty disappointed as this book seemed like there was so much put into it

Struggling to finish the last 80 pages but it’s so hard. This book is extremely boring and hard to stay focused on because of that, there has maybe been 100-150 pages or so that have actually been interesting but overall I don’t see myself recommending this book. Now I’m just trying to finish it asap so I can move on to my other book purchases
