I am conflicted about this book. Part way through I almost decided not to finish it. The story itself is interesting (although there is a lot of trigger warnings) but many times I felt that the story was too stagnant. I found myself glossing over many pages, which I rarely do (particularly in part two, and particularly about Violet). I think the book could have been edited a lot better. I also agree with another reviewer who stated they wished the witchiness was more apparent from the beginning, rather than being revealed at the very end. While I am glad I finished it, paradoxically, I wish I never started it to begin with.
