spooky and grim, a fun romp. starts out more eerie and gothic (think haunting of hill house or yellow wallpaper) but ends action-packed and intense (think until dawn)
lots of questions were left unanswered which is a bit unsatisfying but also it makes sense for there to be no answer so I'm not going to lose sleep over it.
dorran is a fairly chill guy, a bit awkward, a bit ominous at first, but overall more of a woobie than anything. clare has final girl energy but her execution doesn't always hit the mark. they were a fun pair to read about and their relationship developed really realistically (though it wasn't very exciting)
it was a good book so I'm probably going to read the next one in the series at some point, but I'm not necessarily hooked enough to start reading it right now

One of the character’s parents was emotionally abusive to them growing up but there isn’t direct emotional abuse in the plotthe_books_music_life's review

The romance is a slowburn and I really liked that for them since Claire is suffering from amnesia and Dorran was her caretaker while also being a literal stranger to her.
The book ends on a cliff hanger and I'm excited to read the second book asap.
