I really didn’t like it. To be fair it started so interesting and I was genuinely invested in the story and had so many open questions. But then the story started feeling all over the place, and I just couldn’t get into it. The characters didn’t do it for me, and the plot seemed so dragged out. There were a few moments where I thought it might pick up, but it never did. Honestly, I was pretty annoyed by the end. Literally an open ending. So many unanswered questions. Like WDYM ending the book in the middle of the plot?! Disappointed

Masterfully done

After reading If we were villains and loving it, I bought this book without even reading the synopsis and I am happy to say that this was a great blind buy. The story is fairly short and the plot is somewhat predictable, but the true treasure is the friends we made along the way. The characters are memorable and have great chemistry, and it was just a joy to read about their little investigation. The author managed to achieve with few words what others cannot in a bible-length novel. It was also gripping to read about the author's personal life and her take on dark academia. Overall, I loved this book. It was a nice little breather and got me out of a temporary reading slump. Rio is shaping up to become one of my favorite authors and I am eager to see what she comes up with next.
