The World Cannot Give by Tara Isabella Burton

3.0

i thought i’d like this more bc it was described ‘secret history and price of salt’ …. criminal offence to put this book anywhere near those. yes it’s dark academia vibes, and i like teen culty books they r always really cool but this was just boring a bit. like a barely remember what happened. couldn’t understand anyone’s motivations for anything. just seemed like the author wanted to write a book with these themes for the sake of it, and didn’t actually have any good ideas. sorry to the author.
