I liked this enough to finish it but I’m still left scratching my head. It felt like it was trying to be more than what it was.

thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the arc!
i really enjoyed this book! it was really fast-paced and filled with action; it rarely slowed down, and when it did, it was still really interesting (though some of the dialogue slowed the novel down a bit). i loved the setting of the bronx, and seeing how the characters interacted both with each other and with the city.
overall, ‘burn down, rise up’ was very fascinating, and I thought it was a really well-written ya horror novel; I haven’t read a horror story for a while, so I really enjoyed getting back into the genre!
