This started so slowly that I almost let the library loan run out. But it was available for renewal, so I kept going and I’m glad I did. It wasn’t too hard to figure out who the murderer was, but there were some other surprises in the story that made it well worthwhile, and the ending is great.

So yeah the actual mystery got a little lost along the way. Honestly I don’t think I would have liked it as much if it hadn’t. I really ended up enjoying the girls bonding and having fun because, yeah, sometimes I just want an audiobook I can listen to while I crochet and not have to be paying super close attention to in order to understand what’s going on. I saw the twist coming and I actually was really hoping for it the whole time bc I find it funny.

This one is very entertaining. I loved the witchy vibes. It definitely is heartbreaking in participating in the main character Mila devastation navigating the loss of Riley. I really felt the grief of this story, and all of the fast and slow ways we let go.
I can’t quite put a finger on why, but I didn’t love the final twist of who the murderer turned out to be. Aside from that I loved the dynamic of the girls. I love the way the story unfolded. I enjoyed the Cross Creek coven.
All in all I think this is a great read, and I appreciate that it is YA creating a space for teens to explore their own relationship with death, sadness, ptsd, and all of the other deeper issues explored in this novel.
Also… teenage girl zombies are awesome 😎 🖤🖤🖤

Hex-cellent
I truly enjoyed it. I read it in one sitting, which is a feat accomplished by few (thanks adhd) and also would not mind a sequel involving Mila & Toby & whomever else wants to come along.

Really enjoy this book - I feel like I usually see twists coming and I didn't. It ended up making the character growth and the bittersweet ending that much better.
