adventurous dark tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.25

it was so fun to randomly watch Seven for the first time while i’m reading this book 😭 i highly recommend the experience btw

(and im pretty sure RF Kuang and every single character in this book would get arrested by Somerset)

i loved the dark academia vibes. it’s totally my vibe ! she gets me !

tbh i felt a bit disconnected in the middle, mostly because of the info dump. but i truly enjoyed the rest of the book, especially the ending .
