Thank you to Netgalley and Macmillan Audio for an ALC of this one.
After their friend Jasmine dies, Miliani, Inez, and Natalie make it their goal to try and bring her back in whatever form they can, and begin practicing spells to try and bind her spirit to her twin sister. But opening the realms has a lot of effects that they weren't expecting.
I really enjoyed the plot of this book! The characters really go through a lot trying to get their friend back and it was interesting to listen to. Unfortunately, I think this book was hurt by having 3 different POVs but only one audiobook narrator. The different povs weren't unique enough for me to easily distinguish between them. I feel that the characters needed more distinguishing qualities.
The prose in this book was really pretty. I loved listening to the narrator read it!
