So thankful that this was a BOTM pick because I don’t know if I would have found it on my own. I can’t even go into details - one of those books that leaves you with a warm, satisfied feeling and the dread of a good book hangover. I don’t usually like books that bounce around different characters at different times because I think it’s an over-used format, but I loved it in this book. Kept me on the edge of my seat. The author has a similar book about Sirens coming out in 2025 - can’t wait! Though I hope it’s not too similar.
LOTS of big trigger warnings.
