Sweet Nightmare by Tracy Wolff
4.0

Huge shoutout to Entangled Teen for sending me an arc of this one!
This was my first Tracy Wolff book and overall I found it to be an entertaining read. I loved the premise of a school for misfit paranormals where their powers are kept on lockdown. When a huge storm hits the island the school is on things start to get out of control really fast.
There’s a wide cast of characters who are sassy and witty and terrifying. I had to keep reminding myself that this is a YA book though because the characters could be very immature at times and I had to keep telling myself it’s because they’re teenagers (I’ve been reading a lot more adult fantasy this year)
The only thing I didn’t love about this one was the attempt at a romance. I thought it was very obsessive pining and kinda got annoying when I’d be reading an intense scene and all of a sudden the MC would be thinking about her unrequited love … made worse by her being a teenager (in my opinion)

Definitely an entertaining read though!
