livinthebubble's review against another edition
From what I forced myself to read, there was only drama, random powers and more drama. All the characters have the same voice and I was struggling to distinguish between all 6 of them. Also, the authors decided to add every "teen problem" into this: suicide, depression, self-harm, eating disorders, fatphobia, bullying (honestly endless list) in graphic detail sometimes. Sorry, but no.

Spoiler
Rebecka’s death especially upset me. Her going to Adriana was such a déjà vu moment from the beginning of the book and you knew that she now had to die – but I didn’t expect it to actually happenSpoiler
the demon is murdering the chosen ones. Many assumptions I had who would be evil were wrong, and I got tricked by the narrative at some points. I was sure that Nicolaus or Adriana would have something to do with it, but they don’t. It was a bit disappointing that Adriana is not evil because she would’ve been such a cool villain, but oh well, I still love her. I also believed that Gustaf was responsible for Rebecka’s death and that he’s faking all his feelings. It was a surprise in the end that Max was the demon, I didn’t see that coming – when re-reading this series one day, I definitely will look out if there were any hints towards this twistSpoiler
her mourning because of Rebecka was depicted realistically as well.Spoiler
their house burned down and her grandfather being not the same anymore. I’ve already read the following books, and sadly, her life doesn’t get easierGraphic: Addiction, Bullying, Child death, Death, Eating disorder, Fatphobia, Mental illness, Self harm, Suicidal thoughts, and Suicide
