I really want to like this author- this is the 2nd book I’ve read by Natasha Preston. The beginning starts out intriguing, the middle is a bunch of nothing for a long time, & the ending is so fast with zero resolution. I feel similarly about The Cellar, also by N.P. Just bleh.


 Kayla & Olly are huge red flags. Esme is bland & you don’t really know enough about anyone else to catch the vibe imo.
