I put all the triggers I remembered in "moderate", though some would definitely be better described as "minor" or "graphic".hannahcstocks's review

I didn’t find the plot twist super surprising but I like the way it was explained. I found Libby to oftentimes be annoying and I wasn’t a huge fan of Tristan’s audiobook narrator. I liked Nico and Parisa’s characterizations. I also liked the rivalry between Nico and Libby.
All in all it was a bit confusing at times but I was able to catch up and get on the same page. Not a bad book

however, it was a really enjoyable concept with an interesting take on the dark academia genre. the shock twist that
nevertheless, i still enjoyed it a fair amount and will pick up the sequel when it's available in paperback. if you can stomach the writing style, definitely give this one a shot.

the characters (for the most part) are all awful to each other for most of the book so if you don't wanna read about six adults struggling to get along then skip this one lmaoclairew97's review against another edition

A dark academia murder game that keeps the reader on the edge of their seat.
You know a book is written well when you can both admire and loathe the characters within. There were some areas that were a little trudgy to get through but overall the high stakes pace of the story held throughout.
I cannot wait to see how this ends.
