Wow, what a great way to start a series! I loved the academia vibes and the creepy, special-type school. The mystery was so intense and I liked uncovering more clues as the story went on. Stevie was a great narrator and I feel like her anxiety was showcased well too. I enjoyed the friendships and how they played into the overall story. I listened to this and I feel like it really helped me paint the picture of what was happening. I also thought the flashbacks were soooo good. I am so here for the mystery of it all and I"m so glad book two continues right after the events of book one. I'm a fan of this for sure!
