De een heeft geheimen voor de ander en de ander voor de een.
Me han gustado bastante la ambientación y que sea un dark academia donde lo académico de verdad juego un papel importante (y es dark). Empieza un poco lento y tarda en coger el ritmo, porque encima la protagonista es un pan sin sal que no ayuda a la causa, pero el último tercio es muy adictivo.

The atmospheric setting of this novel is really what did it for me; I've said it before but I can easily be won over when a story contains such vivid imagery. The historic museum filled with centuries old relics and a garden lush with poisonous plants (I mean

This book ended up being more mystery/thriller then the spooky/mystical I expected but I enjoyed it overall.
The Good:
-Atmosphere and vibes.
-Mystery aspects were well executed with clues dropped throughout.
-The building tension and last act.
-Tarot card themes.
The Bad:
-Two thirds of the book dragged hard.
-Its VERY academia focused.
-The delivery of the paranormal aspects.

It was a tough book to rate. The storyline was great, however the "bad guy" I kind of figure out. The ending however kind of threw me for a loop and it's what saved the book from getting a lower score.
I wish there was just a little more focus on the characters in the book. Why they tic they way they do.
I found the tarot portions of the book very enjoyable.
