3.5 stars. Pacing felt weird and drawn out. Sometimes foreshadowing felt like a reveal, but wasn’t treated as a reveal within the book, so when it came time for the actual reveal I was just left thinking “didn’t we know this already?”

A heartfelt and atmospheric queer southern gothic YA book that I would have foamed at the mouth for when I was younger. Pacing left me wanting, but books like this make me happy for the current state of YA. Now excuse me as I go dust off some bluegrass and dark folk playlists I haven’t listened to in a while…
