This book was so fun to read! I loved Bri's relationship to her parents, and the way she interacts with other characters as the story progresses. The growth of her power and connection to her emotions is wonderful. The whole story is a mystery within another mystery, and the ending is a banger!

Content Warnings

Graphic: Death, Violence, and Death of parent

Moderate: Body horror

Minor: Stalking

There is very little the main character has to deal with in terms of explicit racism. She is allowed to be a character without having to struggle with this specific kind of oppression within the story.
