This is definitely a predominantly character-driven novel, but the characters are so interesting and lushly written that it often feels like so much is going on anyway (even though it isn't really). It's one of those books where you feel like you can't really trust anyone as they all have ulterior motives (morally gray). It's very mysterious in their motives coming to light, and learning more about all the characters magical abilities.
Also def everyone is queer, like there's no question in my mind that this will develop in the next books...
I cannot wait for the continuation of the series!
3/5🌶
Graphic: Blood, Death, and Sexual content
Moderate: Hate crime, Gun violence, Mass/school shootings, Violence, Toxic relationship, Adult/minor relationship, and Suicide
Minor: Alcohol, Drug use, Terminal illness, and Child death
Many of the above moderate TW are described in past tense (fairly vaguely) as part of character's background stories.omfgeleanor's review against another edition
