Certainly well written, but I couldn’t help but be frustrated that the Proctor
turned out to be another character who’s only alluded to but never contextualized
. I think mysteries should be solvable for people paying close attention, but this relied on audiences being kept in the dark the entire time. Still thrilling, but I wouldn’t read it again

While I would have liked a little more character depth and exploration of the friendships in this story, I can't deny that I was highly entertained and had a lot of fun reading this one, so, recommending it! :)

3/5

A good book! It was a good read, a good palette cleanser and nothing too complicated or overwhelming. It was very much like a K-Drama, similar tropes and vibes, which was comforting. It reminded me A LOT of the "School / 학교" K-Drama franchise vibes.
