One last thing I loved: the way the boarding school, Ellington, is described makes me long to go to a place like that. It gives dark academic vibes, decaying opulence, and a socially awkward teen ambiance.
Overall, I really liked this book. Enough to start reading the sequel immediately after.

The romance between Stevie and David came out of nowhere for me. I do enjoy the importance Stevie places on trying to maintain her friendship with Janelle and it would be an easy step to say Stevie is autistic-coded, though it is unclear if that was intentional.
