this was sooooo good. my heart is racing.

this book deserves a better cover because this one made me think the story was gonna be one of those cringy romances i could laugh at, but it’s not!

it’s very emotional, the plot is interesting and well done, and i like the characters. the creepy ambiance was so on point too, i could feel it as if i were watching a movie.

the ending was kinda rushed.

i wish lillia and reeve ended up together because we saw their relationship develop. and they were in love.

and the epilogue being so short, and just a recount of a bunch of years instead of us seeing stuff play out… meh
