First, the good. I loved the vibes of this book. The cottagecore aesthetic screamed Pinterest witch learning crystals and tarot, which is right up my alley. I also loved the female characters of this book, and the relationships they forged with other women. #supportwomensrightsandwrongs if you know what I mean.
However, some things in this book really rubbed me the wrong way.
I also didn't like the endings for two of the characters.
This leaves me feeling highly disappointed in this book. While I enjoyed the writer's style and descriptions, other factors just ruined the experience for me. In saying that, would I recommend it? Yes, but please check the content warnings before reading.

However, it taught me predominantly two things:
- I must stop getting seduced by gorgeous cover art
- I cannot stomach stories about misogynistic physical and emotional abuse 🤷🏻♀️
