I am concerned...about myself really. There is so much so wrong with this book. I am horrified by a lot of it. And yet......I found a lot of it really dang hot. I want to throw up saying this. Why am I like this? Who hurt me? I don't have any answers. Zade is the biggest hypocrite to ever hypocrite. I could have been fully on board with him if there was even a shred of consent for the first 75% of the book. But alas, he is a giant walking red flag and I must sit in my shame and wonder what happened to me that I could not DNF this book because he had me in a chokehold. I might deserve to be committed because against my better judgement I will read the next one.

This is a book that's extreme hyped on social media, and I guess I expect more? It was kinda slow, but also kinda relaxing? 
I liked the c-plot the most. I was deeply invested in knowing who killed Adeline's great-grandmother. The ghost-vibes was a nice touch.

I also liked Parson Manor. It was described perfectly! 
I think Adeline was an okay FMC. I really don't see the hate for her. Zade was also okay, although unhinged lol.

Will be diving right into Hunting Adeline🫣
