I was very excited when I found this book at the bookstore and I’m happy to report that it didn’t disappoint!!
It’s exactly how I expected it to be for being 152 years old, a lot of focus on the setting while ignoring the main character a bit, but still being interesting and spooky. More queer than I had anticipated, which is always a bonus! (We love toxic sapphics in this household.)
The book stands great on its own, but I would love to see someone building onto this story in the future, give it more depth and really flesh out the characters and dynamics more. 150 pages isn’t a lot, and I think there’s even more potential here.
