It had all the ingredients I loved to make a good dark academia but having 2 rape scenes … is a huge no . Also the plot holes ? Like if she’s poisoning successfully members of the nest why wasn’t Silas affected ? 
and just the cringey syltherin snake smut vibes  not in a fun way . 
Silas is a giant obnoxious  man child . The only redeeming factor was the writing was lush and good and phoebe and her leaving it all behind to move elsewhere.
