😭

The comparisons to The Raven Cycle are very accurate. There were some occasional descriptive moments that were confusing and I would have to re-read, but overall I loved this. Spooky shit, southern gothic, magic that is a stand-in for something else, a hint of dark academia and ending that is a glimmer of hope while also guaranteeing nothing, hurts so good, satisfyingly unsatisfying.

I overall really enjoyed the book and its general vibe, however it had a few flaws that stopped it being rated higher.

The first half of the book is super slow and I nearly gave up on it; I’m glad I didn’t because the 2nd half was super captivating.

I did find the random street races off putting and out of place, and I felt as though the book could have benefitted from less of those and an extended ending.

I had a lot of fun with this audiobook. The supernatural stuff was a bit confusing via audio for me, I think I may have followed some scenes a lot better if I were reading instead of listening, but I got enough of it to get the haunting feelings of the scary scenes. I will say that this book has representation of a queer community I am so not familiar with which was interesting lol there’s a lot of drag racing and not the kind that I’m used to. Car stuff is just not for me, I don’t understand it and I don’t want to, so those parts were kinda hard to get through. I liked the overall mystery and ookiness of the novel. There’s a small yet remarkable romance that I found myself shipping far before I thought the book would do anything with it, so when it happened I was very pleased. Overall a fun time, especially for the toxic codependency queer ship enjoyers.

Though I loved this book, I did find the beginning a little slow and the end came very quickly. But the characters were great a the mystery held up till close to the end. But overall I really enjoyed this read especially once I got a bit into it and I didn’t want to put it down.
