This one had a strong start with creepy gothic vibe and lots of mystery to untangle. But then in the second half of the book, it felt like we delved more into high school boyfriend / girlfriend / popularity drama, and started hitting some artificial road blocks on information sharing. The audiobook is great, but I probably should’ve DNF’d around the 75% mark when it started to lose me. But though I wasn’t a fan of the high school drama part, a younger teen might be, and I definitely wouldn’t be surprised if my 12-year-old niece got into this.

⭐⭐⭐½

My face when I should’ve DNF’d a book, but didn’t

Thanks for reading!
