challenging dark emotional medium-paced

It’s kind of like if the author took the Original Peter Pan (the dark one where Peter kills the lost boys when they’re too old), Alice in wonderland, and just a touch of terror/horror genre, gaslighting, mixed in with with the most cliche YA tropes.

Really loved this book. Romance was good and didn’t feel forced. Was guessing the whole way through. I just found Tellas character a bit annoying. Besides that, good book.
