✨🌠 my about / byf / CW info carrd: uchiha-madara 🌠✨

I read Pessl's book Night Film and I wanted more from the author. This wasn't really in the same vein but I still enjoyed it. And considering this is YA, it really shouldn't be compared to an Adult genre book anyways.

It was an interesting premise, edited well enough that a time loop wasn't boring, the characters were decently written, the pace was good. The ending was a little meh for me but I enjoyed the journey there. It was bittersweet.
