its a great book almost completely RUINED by the insta love with mc and chase absolutely awful
why are authors obsessed with putting unnecessary shitty insta love in every fucking book? if someone wants romance, they should read a romance book. god i fucking hate dog shit romance
anyway.... i do like the rest of it though. i love horror where nature is Wrong. the corpse trees are great, the balete trees in real life are super cool to look at.

Hemslock was boringly evil. i liked at the beginning he seemed somewhat normal with some controversy, i was expecting the accusations to prove true, but it was boring how aggressively Bad Guy he became

im so fucking glad though that Alon ended up staying on the island with the Diwata, asleep unless the next asshole comes along to try and sacrifice the last
