I had a hard time with this book and I was so excited because Victora Schwab is one of my favorite authors. Sadly this didn't click with me. I hoped for a real spooky kids book (a la [b:The Screaming Staircase|13555073|The Screaming Staircase (Lockwood & Co., #1)|Jonathan Stroud|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1369670906s/13555073.jpg|19125429]) but this one was even for a childrens book far too short and... well, maybe it was just me but I really didn't like [b:Our Dark Duet|32075662|Our Dark Duet (Monsters of Verity, #2)|Victoria Schwab|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1476399662s/32075662.jpg|43242921] either (lol, unpopular opinion) and I hope she soon continues the [b:A Darker Shade of Magic|22055262|A Darker Shade of Magic (Shades of Magic, #1)|V.E. Schwab|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1400322851s/22055262.jpg|40098252] series because it's still one of the best in my opinion.
But I'm not sure if I want to continue this series. Need to be convinced.
