This book is totally out of my wheelhouse, but I'm so glad I gave it a chance! It's a fast, fun read, but you should definitely check out trigger/content warnings before reading as the book can get fairly graphic in its depiction of gruesome imagery. If you like Stranger Things, you'll like this book.

Yes, I know it's May. But listen, it's going to be practically impossible for any book to just wander into my life and beat this one out. It was absolutely WILD and GORGEOUS and HAUNTING and CREEPY and PERFECT.

First off, spooky cottagecore, twisted fairytale, unreliable protagonist is an entire vibe right now and I can't get enough. Just when I thought no book could fill the "Wink Poppy Midnight" void in my heart, here comes Iris and her sisters. How Krystal Sutherland left my head scrambling even after the book was closed is just *chef's kiss*. The characters were astonishing, the fantasy-nature fashion was mesmerizing, and the atmosphere, the ATMOSPHERE, was so good I'm in tears just thinking about it.

Plus, is there anything more haunting and fascinating than random creepy doors in the middle of the woods?

TILLIA FUCK OFF YOU HAVENT FINISHED THIS YET
ok who the hell is siding with iris??? Not being funny but I genuinely dont understand why she is hating on grey so much???? Like bestie is literally only trying to stay alive?? And ur the fucking reason that tyler is dead so dont give me that shit. Also what the fuck? Ur like omg i cant believe that bitch would say thats how tyler died? Like she p much said the truth? Would u rather she said oh yeah tyler would still be alive if my dumb bitch of a sister, who literally couldnt even follow the very clear clues i left her, cause she left him in a clearly dodgy place while he was asleep and clearly vulnerable. Talking of tyler, im gonna go rip my eyes out. Anyway, yeah team grey. Good vibes tho and we know i love liminal spaces 💕
