Yes
So the premise and the setting was interesting but then my interest slowly fizzled out. It was predictable, a bit convoluted, and they kept pulling out new lore when convenient. The FMC fell flat and her dead twin was more interesting tbh.
I also can’t get past the writing style.
It’s set in Italy and even when reading in English I understand that I’m supposed to pretend they’re all speaking Italian. That’s great and all, except the writing actually squeezes in random italian words in the sentence so it feels more like “these are english speakers living in italy”. Totally takes me out of the story
