Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher and the author for this eARC. I am reading this ridiculously late I know so I apologise for that.
Unfortunately I didn’t like this one. The plot and setting was intriguing but the writing and the execution just didn’t work for me. I kept forgetting that the characters were 17/18 because they acted so much younger than that and the dialogue was stilted. The made up language Ifie as with her friend was just straight up cringe in my opinion and served no purpose for the plot.
I think this read more like a middle grade horror so if you like that type of thing you might like this, although there is some gore. It was released last year on 7th September.
