I enjoyed most parts of the world building but a few parts of the book gave me the ick and I had to take a few breaks.

I don’t know how I feel about this book...

I’m angry that nobody in the school sees how badly the twins are being treated; the blatant abuse by students AND staff. How ✨EVERYONE✨ in the school thinks they have ANY claim over the twins bodies/bodily autonomy is WILD! I’ve been nothing but uncomfortable reading this so far.

I will continue because that last chapter got me… but I hope a “good guy” comes to light soon, or I’ll throw the book against a wall.
