adventurous challenging dark mysterious tense medium-paced

Mysterious and captivating, Katherine Webber has written an enthralling story which had me enraptured from beginning to end. The Revelry excited and frightened me and I loved the aftermath for Bitsy and Amy.

I FLEW through this! I was immediately hooked and couldn’t stop turning the pages. I absolutely adored Jemma and her foster siblings and their story alone would have been lovely but the added mystery/thriller was great! 👀
