4.5
What I loved about this book is how mr.Grady was able to capture the teenage girl vibe so well, I felt connected to the girls and shared their passions and fears (can't talk about the pregnancy part on my behalf). I was so delighted to see in the author's note how much research was put in the book!
What was a little disappointing was the witchcraft aspect, parts that were in the book were so great but like it said in the author's note that it was more of an after thought and at parts it felt like that.
I also <s>wanted</s> needed to know more about Holly and what happened after.
But all in all this book was everything I wanted it to be. So many feelings💜
