The parallels between what was going on stage and in their lives was tragically beautiful.

A great read!

Ok 

I know this book took me legit 6 months to finish and the reason why is because of uni so blame it on that! 

But focusing on the book itself, it’s an amazing book! I would say that it’s also really unique. I never read a book like this and it’s hard to think of any other book that is like this. Or maybe there are books that are similar to it since I’m slowly getting into dark academia so idk! 
But I really liked the story I found it really interesting 

Just wished I read it on my own time honestly 

I was originally going to give this book a 3.5 out of 5 stars but that last part what brought it to 4 honestly
