adventurous dark mysterious tense

THIS. This was the dark woods, misty cure for my soul that I didn't even know I needed 🌲🌫️🖤
The magic and setting was so cool and creepy—but not 'scary creepy'—more like 'mystical/carnival creepy' with the 12 providence cards.
I am entirely obsessed.
Everything lined up for me beautifully with this book. I was home sick with a hot drink on a rainy thunderstorm day during the rainiest summer we have had in decades, craving mystical fall energy when I cracked this baby open and all the vibes just HIT.

I LOVED THIS.

(Also skip the audiobook on this one, I wasn't a fan of the way the narrator did the voices and didn't think she did our protagonist, Elspeth, justice. Reading the actual book was a whole experience 🖤)

A classic fairy tale vibe with Elspeth as a decently strong female protagonist. Bridgerton with some magic and darker characters. Sadly, not many novel ideas outside the fun mystic deck of cards but a decent start that I hope improves in the second!
