Didn’t vibe with writing/narration style; felt juvenile

Wasn't sold on the relationship...it felt too forced. Not sure if it's because of the first meet as an underage girl, or my desire for more depth within the characters. It just didn't read with feeling.

Didn't mind the story line altho the first half felt a little slow. It was not my cup of tea but was able to finish the read.

started very cute, but got more cringey as I went. If I hear “Gran” one more time I’m going to punch someone. Very insta love, Callan doesn’t have a personality really besides loving Aria- but he’s at least sweet

I enjoyed this book because it was a quick fast read, and it definitely had its cute moment sprinkled in the book. But I think this story was somewhat surface level, it didn’t give as much background story as I would have liked and I felt like Callan & Aria’s romance was rushed. Definitely a good book to start the spooky season, but like I said it definitely felt a bit rushed!

Story was ok, but I feel like it needed more fleshing out.
Some of the lead up to events was big and then the actual event was disappointingly short.
Didn't make a great connection with any of the characters.
