Ate. This. Up. So honored to have been chosen to read an ARC of this book! 

I fell so hard for Fynn and Dani. In a message to the author early on in my reading, I said it felt like Bridgerton + Pride and Prejudice + Little Women + a fresh fantasy world of it's own and I stand by this! Stayed up until midnight (v late for me) reading because I couldn't get enough and now I'm sad it's over. 

Onto the rest of the series! 🙌🏻

Idk reading about teenagers getting frisky in a high school just isn't my jam. I couldn't stop thinking about how young they were. And she just went from school bully to leader of the misfits in like a day?
