“People didn’t go looking for lies that didn’t have a reason.”Honestly, this book wasn’t what I was expecting yet it was, at the same time. It’s hard to explain, but, basically, I thought it was going to be a Holly Jackson meets dark romance set themed book that centred around a murder mystery at Yale. It was, in a way, but not. There is a murder mystery, and it is at Yale, but there’s also a unique sort of magic. Think of The Order on Netflix—like that, but darker and without werewolves. And, honestly, I wanted to be gripped into the mystery. Unable to tear my eyes away from the book until I reached the end—but I wasn’t. I simply paced through the book at the rate I did, content. The revelation didn’t all that surprise me, like I had wanted, but the relationship dynamic between Darlington and Alex has interested me and so has the world that it is set in. It’s different, which I think is refreshing because I like different. But I would loved for it to have been gripping in a way that left you reeling.
