I had zero expectations going into this read, but was pleasantly surprised. It’s a dark, queer, mysterious look at the cult-like nature of class systems - among other things.

It’s the kind of book you can picture HBO turning into a miniseries. Non Binary lead, weird and wild story, and a plethora of teen angst.

I will say, the third act comes on a bit fast and feels off-pace with the rest of the book. If you’re prepared for it, it feels less abrupt.

I loved it.
