I feel like the ending was rushed, but I liked the characters. I wish it was longer because it could go more in depth into the story telling, but it was good. 

I would recommend to younger audiences (middle-grade).

I really liked Hicks’ art style and Cassie as a character, but this novel was otherwise mediocre. It was a typical story of a girl starting at a boarding school and getting bullied by a two-dimensional character. I wish it had done more.
