5.0

I don't know what kind of addictive magical substance Adrienne Young puts in her books to make them SO GOOD in such a short page count. Like Spells for Forgetting, The Unmaking of June Farrow blends multiple genres: magical realism, mystery, and a pinch of star-crossed romance. I hesitate to touch on the plot for fear of accidental spoilers, so I'll just say that the cursed Farrow women were a joy to read about. Young employs the same masterful pacing and tension that will keep readers turning page after page, chapter after chapter, with a frenzy.
Will also mention the audiobook is excellent.
