I didn't think it was possible but I think I loved Sheine Lende more than I did Elatsoe and I REALLY loved Elatsoe! Sheine Lende is a prequel (Ellie's grandmother) and I loved all the little references to Elatsoe sprinkled throughout but if you haven't read Elatsoe, you could still read this one first.

I keep seeing this book compared to Jumanji and it definitely gave me Jumanji vibes. I loved the Japanese folklore and horror elements and I also really enjoyed the ace/demi rep in this. The way the MCs navigated the challenges really felt like playing through a video game, which i very much enjoyed! This was a very fast paced story from the get go, which I normally love, but this felt like it was all over the place. It was a fun reading but I think it just needed a bit more foundation in establishing the story at the beginning and more structure throughout.
