Favorite book I've ever read. Every other book has been ruined because it will never live up to this. I had to take a while after finishing the two books that are currently available to drag myself back to the real world.

7 chapters in and I'm hooked I love how detailed this book is and how everything  is coming together (I hate the person on audibile though no emotion at all)
"Dont make your life about the loss make it about the love"

"But medieval house of horrors would make a great band name"
Sarah also being super protective of bree warmed my heart and how she made sure bree felt included and safe

How nick acted towards bree was kinda cute was manifesting  they'd get together somehow 

The charcters were all loveable I just kinda wish there was more description of each instead of bree sounding like she's just got "dead mommy syndrome" 
This book is absolutely  addicting and I can't believe theres gonna 2 more after the 2nd one I'm gonna be so sad when I finish this book.


The audiobook person kept saying words that weren't there page 101 instead of saying  this is gonna be a long few months they said weeks
Arthur is said as author  it bugs me so much

I kicked my feet when bree was talking about nick to alice it was  so cuteee

"Please proceed with the gentle tounging!"
"You're not a damsel to me, Bree. You're a warrior. You're strong and  beautiful and your brilliant and brave. And I'd really like to kiss you"
THE KISS SCENCE  AHHH OH MY GOD

"Do I make you nervous"


This book  made me fall in love, cry and get mad multiple times fuck tor and sel let's send all the love to alice and nick.
So excited  to dive into book 2 and see all these charcters again!
Bree figuring out what happened  to her mom broke me
Brees dad 😭😭 I love him

Brees mums speech fuck man Tracy you got me crying
Bree talking with her grandma made me so happy
YES NICK GET YOUR GIRL

"What changed your mind about the gala?"
"Disney movies."
The love story about sel and nick was hella cute
Definitely recommend this book is my favorite ahh so much charcter development!

Really enjoyed this! Takes a little bit to get going and I was a little bored at first, but once you get into the real meat of the story it moves very fast and keeps you on your toes! It’s refreshing to have author and protagonist of color in the fantasy space and the history is artfully weaved into the story. Coming of age, the stages of grief, exploring family history, and exploring a first love all in the midst of an early college experience and discovering the paranormal.

An all-around amazing book - plot, characters, literary writing style. Unexpected plot twists. Deep and detailed backstories. An unbelievably good story. A must read!
