First thing, I realized the copy that I was sent was formatted backward. You have to start at the "last" page and swipe backward, but you're actually starting at the beginning and going "forwards". This story had some potential, but it was overall a confusing mess. Ella apparently has the ability to hear others' thoughts, but you only see her use this power maybe once or twice and for non-persons. This story focuses on making several urban legends be true but handles it in such a harebrained way. I also REALLY didn't like that they made Indigo children an actual thing. The story even mentioned in a single line, that Indigo children could just be Autistic. In reality, a lot of "Indigo Child" and "Starseed" kids are just neurodivergent children whose parents would rather think their children are aliens than admit they're Autistic, ADHD, or AuDHD. It's honestly a stupid conspiracy theory that has led to a lot of harm to neurodivergent children. The rest of the story is alright? It goes so quickly, you're left spinning and never fully understanding. I did actually like the art, the art style is very pretty.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review!
