It took me quite long to finish this book because, although it was relatively short, it was slow paced and had long chapters. However, I still enjoyed this book and the writing style Casey McQuinston used. The cast of characters was very diverse, which I loved, and they were portrayed in a very real and respectful way. I was recommended this book by a friend and I am glad I read it because I am always down to expand my TBR with sapphic books. I felt satisfied with the ending, and it really made the book for me. The only reason I rated it less than 4 stars is because I am not a big fan of slow paced books (just my personal taste).

Who have Casey the right to hit me squarely center in my feels like this??? 😭

This book is... everything. Found family, drag queens, time crime, pancakes, queer love, pop culture callbacks, NYC subway rides, modern sleuthing, and more. If this is what paranormal romance is, I am here for it. I love everything McQuiston crafted, I laughed, I cried, I fell in love with these characters. 💌

The narration of the audio book was very well done!

August's roommates were my favorite part, i love the found family trope, which made me a little disappointed with their brief plot line resolutions, but other than that i enjoyed the plot and was satisfied with the ending. i appreciated the writing, it's improved from their debut Red, White & Royal Blue. i was extremely uncomfortable during the public sex scene 😬. 4⅜ stars
cover design review: ★★☆☆☆. yikes, it's just overwhelming. let's count the different typefaces: author name (1), bestselling author (2), title (3), "a novel" (4), Q line symbol (5), and tagline (6). all the different colors, three shades of purplish pink that don't go well together, the "S" is higher than the "TOP" in "STOP", Jane's posture looks stiff and unnatural, just very disappointing. the Spanish edition is gorgeous 😭 and the Portuguese edition is good too, love the art style and the easter eggs from the story but i think the character design is somewhat juvenile
