3.0

This book was all vibes and no editing. The pacing was super chunky, the world building was almost nonexistent, the characters lacked depth (we literally got more pieces of character back story in the second to last chapter than we did the entire book), the climatic part was very anticlimactic. That being said, I was still hooked on reading it. It’s very dark and atmospheric, and the multi-POV was fun to read. This book definitely won’t be for everyone, but the vibes were there

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for an eARC in exchange for an honest review!
