Thoughts 🗣:
* Make The World A Better Place: The story takes place in an alternate New York City with people walking around with superhuman abilities. It feels like a Victorian X-Men story but not very expanded on

* Sweet Romance: The relationship between Oliver and Felipe is cute. I found them pleasant enough but not very complex or interesting. 

* He Would Hate Me If He Knew My Secret: The story has the typical "hiding secrets while falling in love" trope,  where one or both characters have secrets that they are afraid to tell the other but eventually it will come out. This is a personal thing but I hate this trope majority of the time and this book did not help

* Mystery Romance - Emphasis on Romance: The murder-mystery was the weakest part of the book. The culprits are easy to spot and there isn't any suspense. 

* Did Not Engage: This is a quick read but I actually read it so slowly because I got bored. The ending is predictable and the mystery weak. I think this is book is more for people interested in a character-driven queer romance with a dash of supernatural mystery. It is not a bad read, just not for me. 

Rating: B-
