This book could stand on its own but there are too many interesting dynamics left open. I keep saying it but the end was awesome!īasically, we really need a sequel. I lowkey loved the villain dynamic with the Master - I even wish we had more time with him! (Future novel, maybe?)

Strong female best-friendship that passes the Bechdel test! (Also Maggie is a riot!) Just when you think you know everything, you're going to get hit over the head. Its a quick and easy read!īut to hold you over, here's a list of highlights (and reasons to read the book!) I don't want to spoil anything because each revelation was exciting and I say just dive in. With no explanation, Lainey starts to search for answers with her best friend Maggie and a cute street fighter, and ends up unveiling a hoard of secrets about her heritage & past. Except, her life suddenly takes a strange turn and she starts to hallucinate visions of a girl named Josephine. So basically we have Lainey, a quirky, small-town girl who's goal is literally just to pass her exams. This was a fun book - and wow that last 30% was a wild ride! But before I get into all that, I just wanted to give a shoutout to the author!įirst of all, thank you, Kim, for the opportunity to read the ARC!
