This book is the sapphic dark academia book I’ve been craving for so long!! I loved the characters throughout and felt that I could connect even with the side characters, who were just all well crafted as the main. The plot does become slightly predictable at some points, but it never took away from the overall enjoyment of the book and definitely didn’t stop me from having a great time reading this.

I just finished it a few minutes ago and that was….. what a journey. It is definitely for those craving a horror, dark academia, lesbian, boarding school tale. The writing was beautiful to read and the characters were interesting to know. I especially love love loved all the parallels, especially at the end of the book. A great read.
