I knew I would love this book after ππ¨π§βπ πππ ππ‘π π
π¨π«ππ¬π ππ§, but love isnβt the right word. πππ³ππ₯ππ‘π¨π«π§ has left me breathless; yearning; haunted. The botanical body horror, the crumbling mansion with its deadly secrets, the feral longing that make up the most poetic murder mystery you will ever read. I adored the boys with my whole heart; Laurie with his sardonic wit & effortless charm, & Evander, constantly berating himself for his autistic tendencies & the hole where his memories should be. The plot is as full of twists & turns as the vines that snake along ribcages & every shock feels like being bitten by thorns in place of teeth. I couldnβt turn the pages fast enough & am left hollow with loss at finishing this visceral, suffocating, gothic masterpiece.
