3.87 AVERAGE


A little slow to start, and kept somewhat getting distracted from the main plot but by the end it makes sense. A spooky scary retelling of the 12 dancing princesses.

AMAZING!! I don't know if I've ever read a book that kept me this hooked! It also had a really good ending which I loved! I hope the next book can either match or top this book!

SO GOOD OH MY GOD
descriptions were very eerie and vivid i had chills like wow 
 -the slowburn and character dynamic was very good 
-the big reveal was kinda obvious but was so well written that i didn't even care !!

I guess this book just didn't work for me. I didn't really care for any of the characters or the mystery, I thought the romance was unnecessary, and I found the twists either uninteresting or stupid.  The one positive thing I will say though is that the atmosphere and the moments of horror in the book were done well and I did enjoy those.

This was my first reread of the book and I still love it so so much! The plot is well paced, I could read for hours. I love the atmosphere and the dynamics between characters. This is definitely a book I will keep coming back to.
