Sort of A Secret History x Mean Girls x Powerpuff Girls, as it's kind of dark academia wearing a dress with kittens. I buddy read this and it was so good to be able to discuss this while reading, because half of the time all I could say was 'what the fuck?' 

The more I think about this book, the creepier it gets. I posed the question about whether this book was bonkers or brilliant and, after reading a reddit post that clarified so. much. for me, I'd say this book is bonkers brilliant. 

I loved being weirded out throughout the book, and genuinely blown off my socks after getting explained the what and why of this book (and no, I am not ashamed that I didn't get it at first and needed explaining). 

Read this for your weird AF creepy Spooktober list! Or just because TikTok said you should. 

P.S. Having the same name as the MC and her being addressed all. the. time. was SO WEIRD.
