Iโ€™ll be honest, I was nervous when I saw this was described as Caraval meets Throne of the Fallen, cause ya girl DNF both of those ๐Ÿ˜…

BUT HOLY FUCK YALL!!!

Phantasma was eerie and atmospheric, and was absolutely fantastic from beginning to endโ€”didnโ€™t hurt that Blackwell was Draco coded and an absolute dreamboat either ๐Ÿ˜‰

Also the OCD representation in this was well done! 

- necromancer + phantom 
- deadly competition 
- forbidden romance 
- forced proximity 
- morally grey characters 
- instalove/instalust

This wasn't really my cup of tea. Lily and Tate's characters felt underdeveloped and came across very juvenile for people in their late 20s/early 30s. Plus the plot was a bit OTT lol 

Overall it wasn't the worst, but it could have been better.

Remy was truly diabolical ๐Ÿคฃ

She wanted her twin brotherโ€™s girlfriend so bad, and did just about anything to have her. Not that Fauna played too hard to get ๐Ÿ˜œ

I honestly didnโ€™t know what to expect, but sWitch was spicy, fun, and all around a good time.

- twin brotherโ€™s gf
- alternative masc + cottagecore femme
- opposites attract
- cheating, sorta
