short review: incredible book until the last 30 pages

long ish review: i really did love this book. the set up was so good. the unreliable narrator was so well done and really had you questioning what was going to happen next at all times. i feel like the build up was just so good that the climax ended up being pretty anticlimactic. it felt very rushed at the end and therefore a bit disappointing. that being said — i’d still rec it! it’s a really good read (more of a psychological thriller than a witchy-magical-book fyi!!)
