Don't Let the Forest In by C.G. Drews

dark emotional medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes

4.5

This book is not going to be for everyone. But it was everything for me. 
I have never read a more perfectly enchanting and captivating and horrifying and a vividly beautiful  writing. Though it felt like a fever dream, still the topics it covered were real and important and amazingly done. The representation from sexuality to mental health to coming of age problems was entwined so well within the story. There is an open ending but still I feel completely satisfied with it.
A perfect blend of romance and horror in this gothic ya fantasy!
