It's a shame it's wasted on a book like this. The whole book needed to be about 3 times longer, the overarching plot needed further workshopping to convey when the main character is as unlikeable and uninquisitive, and did they really have to out the trans character for representation? And convey asexuality with the most awkward conversation about sex possible?? Also the plot twist was super easy to guess and I literally said "Are you ****ing kidding me" at the ending. My favorite character also isn't coming back, so no reason to continue the series.
It's a shame. The world is great and the author's style is phenomenal, but everything else made for an utterly abysmal experience.

les personnages sont intéressants et très relatable, et c'est un peu frustrant de pas en avoir appris + sur elleux
l'écriture est incroyable aussi, c'est une nouvelle donc c'est court mais j'ai eu l'impression d'avoir lu un roman avec plus de pages tellement l'univers l'histoire et tout est bien ficelé
et puis juste l'ambiance du livre est incroyable, le mix fantastique-thriller version YA est parfait là

The actual plot was just okay for me. I’m not really a murder mystery person. But the writing, worldbuilding, (some of) the characters, and learning about how the school works made up for it.
Unfortunately this was bordering on too gory for me. I’m squeamish about that stuff and I had to skim some parts. Annoyingly I’m the most interested in learning about Jack and Jill’s world, because I love a gothic setting, especially if there are vampires. But I’m betting that one’s even gorier… :/ I am gonna try to continue though.
Would also love to get to see Nancy’s world, but I’m guessing we won’t 😖
