This book did a wonderful job of being creepy and suspenseful, while maintaining beautiful story telling, it was so descriptive and heartbreaking at so many moments. While I enjoyed the characters, their background, their relationships with others, their growth, I also found myself never fully trusting anyone including the FMC Beatrice, which for me was intriguing but equally annoying as well. Gothic literature isn’t something I gravitate towards but my FOMO got the best of me, and I am walking away happy I read it.
