What readers are saying about this book
Summarized by Pango AI
PangoBooks readers have generally praised this book for its dark academia vibes, compelling mystery, and rich, immersive world-building, though many noted it got off to a slow start before becoming a page-turner. The protagonist, Alex Stern, was commonly highlighted as a strong, complex character whose journey of confronting trauma and uncovering magical secrets at Yale was both gripping and inspiring. The novel's exploration of heavy themes such as trauma, PTSD, and various triggers are often mentioned as demanding full attention but handled with a blunt, though impactful, approach. Some readers found the plot dense and occasionally confusing, especially at the beginning, but appreciated the intricate details and dual timelines that ultimately enhanced the mystery. Mixed opinions emerged regarding the book's pacing and resolution, but excitement remains high for the sequel. Overall, it's seen as a strong adult fantasy that diverges from Bardugo's previous works while retaining her knack for detailed storytelling and complex characters.
