Sapphic romance, deals with strange beings, increasingly horrific injuries and mangling. Who wants to be popular and liked and loved? How far will they go to get it?

I had fun reading this book! Just good ol' fashioned "magic has a price" and borderline Lovecraftian horror wrapped up in a tale of one girl learning about herself and teenage angst and yearning.

Although this and the other book I'm currently listening to (A Good Girl's Guide to Murder) where the characters all seem to come from very rich families and attend really nice schools. And predominantly white. Actually, that was a thing that came up in this book. The author would introduce the characters as white and Simon as Black. It ground my reading to a halt for a second as I don't think I've come across character descriptions that bluntly before. I kinda wish the author would show instead of tell. You can describe a character and sprinkle physical descriptions throughout and let the reader build a picture in their mind. We're not dumb, I swear!
