This one was Peter Pan meets Swamp Thing and Buffy (the entire show and its vibes). It had a little bit of Dead Boy Detectives vibes sprinkled in as well. It was glorious horromance with chilling eldritch horror.

I couldn't put it down. The characters were 🤌🏼. The horror was horroring, like that feeling you are being watched or followed in the dark. It made me feel all the feels and gave me goosebumps!

It was sad and beautiful. It was about facing fears, change, and the reality of growing up. It was about the realization that not everything is what it seems, even childhood memories. It was about how monstrous men seeking power can truly be.

It was about friendship and found family and the desperation to survive and protect those you love. It was dark and atmospheric. It was everything I hoped it would be. I can't wait to read it again!
