This genre is one of my new favorites of the year! I was definitely hoping for more horror aspects but went in blind so I can’t really complain. The start of this book was slow and i was frustrated with Andrew for not working faster but I get he was going through shit. However once it picked up i was sucked in and needed to finish it. I loved the way Andrew as a character grew and worked through his grief and confused feelings about himself and Eddie. Loved the atmosphere of haunts and wild nights, the perfect summer read! I kinda wish there was more because I thoroughly enjoyed the characters and wanted more from them.
Sam calling Andrew princess had me rolling everytime he said it; so happy they seem to have figured shit out in the end/ are working towards that.
