This was a fun, fast paced dark academia that dives into secret societies and the power of the ultra wealthy. I enjoyed the interwoven stories of both Mya and Naomi and how they were both so similar even though a decade apart. I appreciate the messaging that is portrayed throughout the book of challenges of being multiracial while trying to navigate the same things as those who are white and wealthy. It gave this book more depth and made the characters feel more real. I loved the mystery of the secret societies and all of the connections that were made through both of the sisters storylines. 

I did the audio for this one and the narrator was great and I would easily listen to her again. I would also read more from those author as it kept me entertained the entire time.
