How was this book so good? An urban legend, the Bronx and a cast I can't love more. I need more

Oh. My. God. This book! This book has been one of my most anticipated reads so far this year and it did not let me down! The characters were great, the plot was solid and so unique, and the world building was amazing.
This book was an amazing mix of horror, romance, thriller, and political commentary. This book definitely gave me a monster horror vibe. I know everyone is comparing this to Stranger Things or even Get Out but it so much cooler than that.
Tirado wrote such an amazing story about friendship, racism, and the need to confront our past. If badass woman are your thing than this is definitely the book for you.
Plus that cover is just amazing!!

I have received this ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Burn Down, Rise Up was a very interesting but super confusing book. It definitely started off with a mini bang that captured my attention. The little elements of horror throughout the book definitely kept me on the edge of my seat. Unfortunately, I feel like I'm left with a bunch of unanswered questions and that annoys me.
As for the characters, I liked them. I really did. The friendships were easy to get along with and were adorable at times. I just think the romance was okay and had potential to be better. Then again, it is kind of hard to develop something with someone if you aren't exactly with them for most of the book. So, in a weird way, I see why things happened the way they did but I still wanted more.
Other than that, the game was completely dark and confusing. I would never volunteer as tribute to play. Like ever. Definitely had its creepy moments that will probably haunt me tonight when I'm asleep. I still wish that we got more information about it because I didn't fully understand why some of what was happening was actually happening.
Then again, it could just be me. I'm still happy that I got the chance to jump into this book. I think the Narrator, Julienne Irons, did an amazing job and I look forward to another book written by Vincent in the very near future.
