I had one of those moments reading this book where I thought to myself, what would I have been like if a younger me had this? Yes it can be a bit heavy-handed with the message at time, but I think it’s still beautiful. Effy learns to trust and believe herself, and finds someone who does the same. Gorgeously written and perfect for a dark academia fan.
