I think this book was so atomspehic but because of that it really had a vague plot and hard to pinpoint characters. I struggled to feel connected to them. I think that was sort of the point of this story. I just think this story was all vibes and it neeed more direction or to have the characers more unqiue. I liked it but did not feel conneced to it it!

i just did not love this one as much. i think i really struggle with books where i don;t love the charactrs and the mystery did not capture me as much as i wanted it to. this book was told in unique way but i did not love it.

I think this book was a fun read. I think the world and the charactrs were fun. I think this boom had a great balance of ccozy vibes and also fantsay vibes. It was a super quick read and one that i liked. I think i missd the other pov to flesh out this world and because of that the romance vibes did not really pull me in.

I think this was a face paced thriller and i enjoyed the quick pace nature of it. I liked the podcast elements and thought the twists and turns were fun but like most thrilelr it is really hard to feel that conneced to the characters!!

I think the world bulding could have been a bit clearer.. but it was great
