adventurous dark emotional mysterious tense slow-paced

4.0

Turns out the devil is extremely girlie pop once you give him a flower crown 

This was really fun and also very different from what I expected. The first half is pretty slow moving and it honestly stopped feeling spooky even before that. I was a little sad the spookiness didn’t last longer but I still really enjoyed the story! 

Def check trigger warnings. There’s some graphic gore and violence

This is a spooky season, witchy must read. Great writing really felt all the feels for the characters in this book. Also, an incredible story that keeps you on edge, wanting to know what happens to Abitha & Samson. What a power duo!
