What can I say, I‘m a sucker for books with Death as a narrator. I had a few issues with this one (the fact that the timeline was so short but they spent FOREVER in one house talking about doing things), but I loved that Blake gave all the characters with romances history, so it wasn‘t insta-love. Also the art on the end pages? Gorgeous.

GondorGirl I've really enjoyed most of Blake's books, and this one was no exception. I really enjoyed her portrayal of all of the different types of creatures and how they fit into the "real" world. 12mo

If you like math, you‘ll love this book. I don‘t like math, and I don‘t like paradoxes in my plots. I did like the romance, and the mystery, and the ghosts tho! Finally, an author that will let her FMC be MAD!! I love it.

Hey #TeamCryptKeepers. Here are the top 3 teams for the #Scarathlon23 for the 1st half of the month. Although we are not in the top 3 we sure came close. I am very proud of you guys. I love your posts, so keep tagging me with them. You guys are awesome. Can you believe we reached a little over 2 million points between all the teams? We have two more weeks. Let's go! 👻🎃🐈‍⬛

LinesUponAPage Wow, i can‘t imagine how many points each participant got on those three teams, i thought i had a lot while slacking… i guess i need to step it up some more. 13mo

Wow that was disappointing. Sudden transphobia in the middle there, and the inconsistent chapter timelines hurt my brain. Having read a book on Columbine earlier this year, the last chapter really rubbed me the wrong way.

In other news, I started my move! I‘ll be in Anchorage on Sunday. :)

A gorgeous cover and interesting premise got me intrigued, but overall this book was very disappointing. The FMC attends an elite girls prep school, returning after a year away dealing with mental health breakdown due to the traumatic death of her best friend/secret girlfriend. The dark academia aesthetic really failed for me, since despite numerous references to the FMC‘s intended thesis there‘s basically no magical explanation or studies. More >

Kimberlone There was nothing engaging about any of the characters, the FMC mainly complains about how terrible it is to go from being rich and popular to only rich. The side characters have no personality or any purpose in the plot, the trans/non-binary character was totally shoe-horned in and had no bearing on the overall story. Utterly befuddled by the ending and epilogue. The audio narration was also frustrating since Alex and Ellis sounded so similar. 13mo
PuddleJumper Ah that's a shame! Going to read that next week 13mo
