This book was so gross. I loved it. It’s nasty parts were disgusting and I could picture the visuals so clearly. It was awesome. 

I was rooting for Finch and Selena from their very first meeting. I loved the supporting characters of Sumera, Simon, Amber, and Risa. 

Kyra was the perfect villain and pawn for Nerosi.

The spookiest part for me was when Simon and Selena saw the Echo of Margo. For some reason that really freaked me out. But in the best way. 

Overall I liked the writing style and humor of the book. I liked the characters. 

I wish Sumera could have been seen as more multi-dimensional rather than always being upset with Finch or Selena. I also wish we had slightly more build up towards the beginning of the story.

Mention of past suicide off page occurs twice and is brief. Outing is referred to in the past.
