First audiobook of 2024. Tbh I wish I had a stronger start but it could have been worse :P
The goods:
- The mystery was twisty and enjoyable. I liked putting the puzzle pieces together with the main character.
- The action scenes were done very well, I felt like I could visualize everything.
- The vibes were definitely spooky filled.
The loss of 2 stars:
- The rules felt like nothing was actually set and everything was festival. It just always felt like there was an exception and it got rid of any suspense it tried to build.
- The ending kind of wrapped stuff up but I still have way too many questions in general in this world.
- The romance was weird on all ends and I wish it wasn't there at all.
Overall, there are definitely other YA thriller/mysteries that do it better, but this did have good spooky vibes. If you're looking for a spookier book that isn't horror, this is a good mix to try.
