4.5 ⭐

I would give it 5 stars because it was really great, but at one point it started to get too predictable. But I am still excited for the rest of the series!

3.5 ⭐️ I was confused the entire time? But also semi-pleasantly suprised at the ending? Felt like I was on drugs the entire time, very Alice in wonderland. Also my poor girl Scarlett was annoying but went through hell and back

Definitely not my normal read but i did really like it. Dark and twisty, a little drawn out in my opinion and the ending felt rushed. SPOILER: i kind of wish no one had come back to life? Or at least 1 stay dead? I mean i know the whole “wishing” thing was the main part of the drive originally before her sister was taken but it made for a happy ending 

1.5/2

Scarlett was gaslit so bad 😭
I loved her, but despised how she was treated half the time, especially when she was forced into a big charade. I enjoyed the middle of the story most, and liked her and Julian's relationship ultimately.
adventurous medium-paced
