[♥️] packed w action and romance! prob one of the best of the series next to obsidian! more of a new adult book compared to the previous books. couldn’t stop thinking about it after i put it down. definitely pulled on my heartstrings and made me gasp on the twists that armentrout added. here i actually started to have favorite side characters (i’m talking about u, archer). 4.4 stars.

i even made a playlist :) https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3Q5L9PTcDZV9EjLMQkLRkP?si=tuSLxxQxSiSTCJ2lKBfLAw

4.5 Repetitive at some points, other than that it's super good! The end had me on the edge of my seat! Me the whole time: "AHHHHHHHHHHH!!".

[♥️] atmospheric, thrilling, dark, and eccentric!
low 4 out of 5 stars. i was amazed by the journey detective bridie devine goes through while trying to solve the kidnapping secret daughter of sir berwick! definitely couldn’t keep this book out of my mind. simply adored ruby, the boxer ghost, and cora, the seven foot tall house-maid! ah, i wish we had more content on both of them! floored by the wicked characters and gore!!

i don’t think i’ve read a book with the amount of pov transitions like this... sometimes it dampers the shock factor and makes the rest predictable. also, the author sometimes gets carried away with the extensive vocabulary and descriptions which made it difficult to read. :( nevertheless, it’s cool how kidd blends humor and gothic mystery!

i couldn’t put this book down for too long. totally transported me to maui, made me swoon for most of the book, and gave me a handful of good laughs between olive and ethan’s witty banter. absolutely in love with this trope and it felt like candy reading it! a very fast and light read thanks to christina lauren’s writing style. ok now i must add more of their books on my tbr ASAP... NOW!
is it rereadable ? yes!!!!
highhH 4 stars!!!!

♥️ ”i’d disappear completely, then reappear in some new form. this was my hope. this was the dream.”
this book makes me feel revived especially the 2nd time? bumped that 3 to 4 stars! like this is the thing to read when i want to erase myself from everything for a while. lived vicariously thru her for a few days. ok yes she’s an a-hole, i know.
“being pretty only kept me trapped in a world that valued looks above all else.”
and hell to the yeah… yorgos is going to make a movie adaptation alongside margot robbie! already it’s 10/10 .. chef’s kiss. this will be My joker, too.

The cast of characters was amazing… and Camila was so wise! To tell you the truth it took me the last bit of the book to get really into it. Can’t wait for the Hulu adaption, I know I’ll be grabbing the book again before it airs.
