I would’ve enjoyed a few more pages to expand some detail so it’s less rushed. The ending is good but would’ve loved what was being set up instead of it.

4.0

I love the concept of focusing on people who’ve returned from portal worlds rather than discovering the portal world, and how they cope with that. The worldbuilding is really cool. I like how they explain the different ‘directions’ and types of worlds and how they work. You can tell a lot of thought went into this.

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 😖

Specific gore descriptions:

a body with missing hands (bloody), a body with missing eyes (a crow.. enjoys this. It’s also described in much more graphic detail during an autopsy), a body getting dissolved in acid (mostly happens off page but not entirely), a body thats found missing a brain (i skipped over that so idk how descriptive it was, but not very I don’t think) plus some more less graphic stuff
