Wow, this was a blast! I usually stay away from YA but this book was not too YA for me. It's an amazing read with a really interesting story and a great perspective. I absolutely love the twisting of Arthurian legend, secret societies, and Demon hunting into this wonderful new adventure with some truly unexpected twists and turns.
The mental health / grief representation and the exploration of black history and legacies were so well handled and incorporated into the story.
There are quite a few characters and my tired brain sometimes lost track of who was who and who had done what in previous scenes but I think that's more of a me issue 😅
11/10 would recommend!
