Wowowow, I never would have thought how much I'd like this book! It has the perfect somewhat cozy gothic setting and I loved all the ghosts and fairies so much.
I started this book without reading half a soul first and was a little afraid that I wouldn't understand a few things because of that, but it really wasn't a big problem. And it also really wasn't my last Olivia Atwater book! I'm SO exited for rosemary & thyme and I will read half a soul as soon as possible!
The main character was excellent, I enjoyed seeing through her eyes a lot (it also made the scary parts less scary).
The only flaw is that sadly it has this "immortal man x young woman"-thing. I also would've enjoyed a more diverse set of characters.
But nonetheless I had so much fun reading it and from now on will count it as one of my favorite books!
Thanks a lot NetGalley for providing and e-ARC of this!
