slow-paced

Were it not for book club, I would not have finished this book. It starts off sort of cool and sassy, with a mean girls vibe, then rapidly descends into mystical nonsense  about bunnies turning into humans. I dreaded picking this book up to see what would happen. I definitely won’t be reading the sequel.

battle of the goths and the coquettes

2.5stars
this book just kept getting weirder and weirder and half the time I had no idea what was going on.
I can't say that I had high expectations about it, because I got bored on chapter one, but still. A part of me was hoping that it will get more interesting, less weird, that I will end up liking it, but no.
I didn't like the characters at all, I found them annoying, so so annoying. All of them. So annoying that I wanted to dnf the book and honestly i would have done so if it wasn't for the book club.
There were some plot twists that I didn't expect at all, but even that didn't make it interesting enough for me to give it more than 2.5stars.
Over all I am glad I found the audiobook because it helped me finish it faster. Definitely won't read again.
