Slow, slow, slow. It seemed like the author loved similes and descriptions and sometimes used multiple descriptions for the same thing, like she was so excited about them she couldn’t decide which one to use. The plot dragged and dragged and the characters were dull.

A lot of build up. Definitely a slow burn. The ending went off though! Some twists were more predictable and others I really did not see coming. But something was still missing for me throughout. Maybe some dark academia would have been more atmospheric. I think the beachy vibes made it almost campy for me, and took me away from the suspense element.
