A Dark and Drowning Tide by Allison Saft

5.0

This may be one of the best sapphic fantasy novels ever written !

A folklorist (!!!) and her academic rival (!!!!!!!) have to work together to solve their mentor’s murder (!!!)

The vibes of this book were immaculate. It was eerie and beautiful and haunting and utterly enthralling. The pacing was great, the plot was so wonderfully written, the characters were well developed, the setting was immersive, AND DO NOT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE SLOW BURN!!!!! SO SO SO SO GOOD ❤️‍
