this was good if you are looking for a beginner novel into scifi. this had enjoyable characters but gotdamn was kyr annoying! it was so frustrating3.5
this was good if you are looking for a beginner novel into scifi. this had enjoyable characters but gotdamn was kyr annoying! it was so frustrating reading from her perspective as i found her to lack a lot of personality that other characters had. but it was still fun in the end and had a lot of good moments. ...more
i don’t know if it’s because i have insomnia myself or the fact that i read this faster than i could blink but i absolutely loved this book.
i don’t ki don’t know if it’s because i have insomnia myself or the fact that i read this faster than i could blink but i absolutely loved this book.
i don’t know if everyone will love this but surely it’s for me! i loved how it felt like scooby do but adult, i loved the graveyard setting and i loved this weird friend group they formed. i loved that not every character was a college student and that every character had something personal going on even with how short this book is.
one of my favorite tropes is when the found family is an unlikely group, where they form a found family relationship but either the characters hated each other beforehand or they’re so vastly different you wouldn’t expect them to be friends and surprisingly this book does that well! i think Rio does a good job at writing found family’s or group dynamics in general and i hope to see more of that from her in the future.
i do agree with everyone on the fact that it should’ve been longer but mostly because i fell in love with the characters and wanted more from them. i do think it’s the perfect length for this story because i actually don’t think for me that it would’ve worked as a full length novel....more

this was a lot of fun and i highly recommend to fans of doctor who. it gave me everything i was looking for, it was similar to doctor who whilst also this was a lot of fun and i highly recommend to fans of doctor who. it gave me everything i was looking for, it was similar to doctor who whilst also being unique. i enjoyed obi and asha as characters but for some reason i couldn’t connect to asha as much as i did with obi. i also liked obi and george’s romance more than asha and xavior, the forbidden trope for obi and george just worked so much for me. i think the writing was great and there never was a dull moment here. excited to see where the rest of the books go. ...more

this book is so dramatic, it kept assuming it came out in 2017 or something because of the way it reads but no it literally came out 2 years ago. i althis book is so dramatic, it kept assuming it came out in 2017 or something because of the way it reads but no it literally came out 2 years ago. i also feel like the book had WAY too many characters at first but after a while it was pretty decent, it made it a bit more fun actually. other than that i think this book was super fun! it read like a netflix or hulu book adaptation. it brought me back to when i used to read contemporaries in high school and they were just fun. ok and this book had an only girl in a group of guys trope which i love so it really made the book that much better for me ...more
