4.0

• professor x student is *not my thing* but vad deverell has me (and corvina) in a chokehold
• gothic elements were so well done, i was very creeped out good job runyx
• such a different vibe from the dark verse series but the writing style is exactly the same, you can tell it's a *runyx* book, yanno?
• some grammatical errors and general confusion in places (riiiiight at the end, they're somehow having sex with his back pressed against her and i truly don't know how that works)
• overall very good, i loved the descriptions and the characters and the plot twist, literally only knocked a star off because i felt icky sometimes with the teacher x student vibe but it's fine i'm fine

TWs: suicide, explicit sexual content (unprotected), schizophrenia, institutionalisation, blood, murder, death, drowning, vomiting, mention of sexual assault, drugging, paranormal scenes, power imbalance, professor x student forbidden relationship.
