This was good. Almost kicked myself for liking it because of how much I associate Leigh’s books with my old toxic bookstore job but I think reading this reclaimed that. It’s dark and adventurous and very easy to get lost in the story. I will say, Darlington as a shortened ver of Daniel Arlington is just…. an ick. Anyways, can’t wait for the sequel to come out in paperback next year and go to hell. Cuz I’d rather go to hell than pay full price for a hardcover book these days.
