More like 2.5 stars. Not sure what I was expecting in only 144 pages, but I was expecting a lot more from this. This wasn't bad by any means, but I think I just wanted it to lean a little harder into the creepy or gothic vibes. The cover is an easy 5 stars though. Easily one of my favorites of 2024.

Story: 2.5/5
