Lottie is obsessed with the 4 murders that happened at the university 10 years ago. When the school re-opens, she applies, determined to solve the case. Alice is angry at everything, including her sunshine roommate Lottie. When strange things start happening to them both, they have to team up to get to the bottom of it, before someone else dies.
The thing I loved most about this was the pure rage Alice feels, especially about the oppression of women, relegating their anger to madness over the years. Through its supernatural lens, it shows the injustice of it all. Also loved the asexual (demi?) rep in Lottie.

Premise (from the author’s own description!!!):
🥀 f/f enemies to lovers
🌲 Northumberland in the 90s
🔮 sinister rituals
🖤 slow burn romance
🩸 all-girl fight club
🌞 grump/sunshine
🛏 there’s only one bed
🔪 hurt/comfort
Thoughts:
Hmmmm, what to say, what to say…. I love a sapphic reimagining with ace representation of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde but I especially support young angry femmes.
It was giving Wednesday x Enid & I didn’t hate that!
