So yeah the actual mystery got a little lost along the way. Honestly I don’t think I would have liked it as much if it hadn’t. I really ended up enjoying the girls bonding and having fun because, yeah, sometimes I just want an audiobook I can listen to while I crochet and not have to be paying super close attention to in order to understand what’s going on. I saw the twist coming and I actually was really hoping for it the whole time bc I find it funny.

This one is very entertaining. I loved the witchy vibes. It definitely is heartbreaking in participating in the main character Mila devastation navigating the loss of Riley. I really felt the grief of this story, and all of the fast and slow ways we let go.
I can’t quite put a finger on why, but I didn’t love the final twist of who the murderer turned out to be. Aside from that I loved the dynamic of the girls. I love the way the story unfolded. I enjoyed the Cross Creek coven.
All in all I think this is a great read, and I appreciate that it is YA creating a space for teens to explore their own relationship with death, sadness, ptsd, and all of the other deeper issues explored in this novel.
Also… teenage girl zombies are awesome 😎 🖤🖤🖤

Hex-cellent

I truly enjoyed it. I read it in one sitting, which is a feat accomplished by few (thanks adhd) and also would not mind a sequel involving Mila & Toby & whomever else wants to come along.

Really enjoy this book - I feel like I usually see twists coming and I didn't. It ended up making the character growth and the bittersweet ending that much better.
