I wish I was engaged like at all during this but..no. I was hoping it was the grittier the raven cycle but I was sorely disappointed

Honestly even though I didn’t rate it the highest, I really want to reread it and really dive into it

Ok, so, the final hundred or so pages of this absolutely slapped. The climax and resolution were a real masterFul work (tense, scary, sexy, mysterious!) that I absolutely ate up. But the pacing up to that point was a real struggle. I think the effort to get across the claustrophobic, grieving, spooky ambiance was somewhat effective but ultimately overdone at the outset. Felt like we struggled to find our feet in what became a very interesting story. Not sure I’d recommend this one out but think I’d read more from the author to see if Mandelo pulls it off more effectively in another story.
