i actually rlly liked it! gave me similar vibes to the spirit bares its teeth by Andrew Joseph white!

“She’s made of every bad thing that has happened to her, just like she’s made of every good thing. She’s made of every good thing before the woods and every good thing she found in its unyielding grip.”

god i love this book.. i love that this had me hooked on the first page and the characters i went on this journey with.. i love the concept and the dialogue. it seems like something out of a nightmare but it's not over the top. i love that it made me feel scared and hopeful. i loved that our sapphic couple didn't seem forced and i love the message that we can make it out on top no matter what we're going through and start anew
