What else could you possibly want?
Why aren’t more people talking about this???
The writing is absolutely gorgeous. I will read literally anything Riss M. Neilson writes from now on. The characters were so well developed and I wanted the best for all of them. It was way more emotional than I expected it to be, but in a great way. And it was shockingly creepy at times, which was a wonderful surprise. I only had one very small complaint and that was that the passage of time wasn’t clear in the novel. The novel felt like it happened over several months, but I think it really only happened within a few weeks. But that didn’t dampen my enjoyment at all.
Please everyone go read this! Pls🥺

After their friend Jasmine dies, Miliani, Inez, and Natalie make it their goal to try and bring her back in whatever form they can, and begin practicing spells to try and bind her spirit to her twin sister. But opening the realms has a lot of effects that they weren't expecting.
I really enjoyed the plot of this book! The characters really go through a lot trying to get their friend back and it was interesting to listen to. Unfortunately, I think this book was hurt by having 3 different POVs but only one audiobook narrator. The different povs weren't unique enough for me to easily distinguish between them. I feel that the characters needed more distinguishing qualities.
The prose in this book was really pretty. I loved listening to the narrator read it!
