loved the messy protagonist, and the writing makes it hard to tell how much time has passed which makes for super fever-dreamy vibes!

3.0

I loved exploring the multilayered trauma and the twisted sister relationship. I don’t fully understand what sasha was meant to accomplish besides being a foil. It would have been nice if more came full circle with that, since it was such a large part of the book. I do have to say, the big climax with the sisters was iconic.
