This is a reread for me but one ill always love. I haven't read it since I picked it up in 2021, not long after it published. I'd heard it was an amazing book and I'd had trouble finding it on shelves, and for good reason too. I've since read other books by Àbíké-Íyímídé and she's amazing at writing dark academia books. I'd gladly eat up any book of hers in that genre.
