Um. Not good.

the romance was ok. The plot was ok. Everything was just very ok.

It very distnctly reminded me, in a bad way, of those love triangled from dystopia YA novels. You know, the dark brooding bad boy brunette versus the shallowly nice blonde good boy. Both of whom are in 'like-like' with the MC who is a bashful yet strong, book nerd yet sporty enough to go outside and talk to strangers--just like you teenaged reader!!!!

The writing was passable. It won't be found in any book mock threads. There was decent plot twists.

Honestly if you like those 'cozy mystery' genre stories, you'd like this. Also it's excrutiatingly white. And cishet. It's a harlequin book tbh, don't expect much.

The supernatural bit was kind of interesting, I guess? It's not a haunting per se. It's a curse and the mechanics were interesting enough. But again, don't expect much.
