Creepy faerie vibes and goth kids is the best way to describe this book. It's right up my alley It definitely has that Spiderwick Chronicles for young adults vibe

I really enjoyed the story. I think my only hangup was the writing in some parts. It's not bad, but different than what I've read before.

For the spice, it is definitely spicy. But I'm indifferent to it. In my opinion, if you took it out, it wouldn't change much of the story. (But I'm also a sucnot bad, more sexual tension and a slow burn)

This is one of those books where you hope the villain's actions are justified by understanding their backstory more, but you're proven wrong
