Verbose and lyrical. Twisty turny. What was the point? Young Indigo is a corrupted and manipulative person afraid to be alone who has the world at her fingertips. Young Azure is a scared girl looking for someone to love her. There were inconsistencies throughout, especially with the graduation timeline, as it would bend and morph like the house. Also, this is more mystery than fantasy. Overall, this was a gothic and atmospheric slog of a read.
