shebarelyreads 's review for:

Phantasma by Kaylie Smith
2.75
dark mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I found the story and characters intriguing, but I couldn't help but feel unsatisfied. For me, some aspects of the story fall apart when you really pay attention to the details. At times it felt as if the romance and fantasy elements were constantly clashing and they didn't really blend well together. Ophelia was lowkey infuriating ngl and the ending felt anticlimactic.
