It’s all fun and games to blur the lines of reality in a book but when it becomes indescipherable and I have no idea what is real and what isn’t, I get bored and frustrated. I love magic in books. Magic is great. But magic still needs rules to tether it to my imagination and allow me to be immersed in the novel. Whether or not anyone was real or not, Samantha did not grow as a person from beginning to end. She was indecisive, weak, unimaginative, flakey, insipid, and hollow from the first page to the last. Good riddance bunny.

Also what’s this bs about “dark academia” people on TikTok will do anything to make something interesting. These bitches are at school. If that makes it DaRk AcAdEmiA maybe the magic school bus is too.

This book is so weird and strange—in the best way. Imagine if Heathers were into witchcraft, drugs, and frilly dresses, and you’ll start to get the vibe. The prose is freaky and kind of dense, occasionally description-bog territory, but once you push through, bonkers truly ensues.
It’s fun, and sharp, and a really unique spin on the coming-of-age tale. Reading it honestly feels like getting a lobotomy, but in the best way possible. If you’re into pretentious cliques, sacrificial cults, and exploding heads, —all while the characters are busy getting their MFAs in writing and lit—then this one’s for you.
Maybe I’m messed up, but I was honestly expecting it to be even weirder.
2.5 stars
the first half was so confusing and then when i was starting to understand and sort of enjoy it the ending came and pissed me off
