Burn down, Rise up is exactly what it promises: a fast-paced ya horror novel with strong Stranger Things vibes and a focus on societal and racial injustice, and I really liked it! 

The story flows well and the characters work well together; the writing style is simple and easy to get in. The plot isn’t very original per se, but I think it is executed well and the dark vibes are the strongest suit of the novel.  

I’ve enjoyed my time with this one for sure, would definitely recommend.
