 OMG guys this was my first time visiting the wonderful world of Gallows Hill Salem and I cannot wait to go back. I signed up for the arc just because it's a dark sapphic romance 😂 and Ms. Taylor DID NOT disappoint. This book has had me in a chokehold since I read it! Initially I didn't think I'd finish this book before the deadline because I've been so busy but BABYYYYYYYY I could not put it down!! The romance was sweet and the spice was 🥵🥵 I'm genuinely obsessed!!

The characters are just so raw and complex I couldn't help falling in love with them. I'm a girls girl so I could not stand the MC Bridgette at first due to her pick-me energy, but she is so funny and her character development was just so good I absolutely loved her by the end. They say that sapphic yearning is "just different", and they were not lying with this one! You can FEEL how much Maggie and Bridgette wanted each other. Not to mention the tension and build up of their tumultuous relationship, which made them coming together sooo much sweeter.

While the romance is more sweet than dark, the world it's set in is so dark and mysterious that I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. I'm not joking when I say this NEEDS to be at the top of your TBR asap!
