What a delight. Poppy and Roisin feel like two real people. Poppy is so unlike the characters that one normally sees in a book like this, and watching her and Roisin slowly transform each other – and, over time, the world around them – is captivating. Every character that appears on the page feels fully realized. I loved this book and I would read it again, or anything else she writes.

I wish I had more than 5 stars to give this. A new favorite. A beautiful gothic sapphic romance.

It started out great. Intriguing. Well-paced. But it began to get repetitive, and I stopped caring about the characters

DNF - brilliantly written and hilarious, but the core conceit is challenging to get on board with because it seems illogical. I would still highly recommend anyone on the fence to pick it up and give it a try, since it's without a doubt an enjoyable read.
