Not quite as dark academia as I was originally expecting but Sutherland killed it again with the dark atmospherics that she is well known for. Loved the magic system between demons and witches that she used. All 3 of the main girls were entertaining to read about, they were all well thought out and each brought something to the plot. I even loved Bael who was barely in the book, that's how well she wrote the characters. The mystery was well planned and I did guess the villain but it was still fun to read. I'd honestly love to get a Phoenix House sequel to revisit the girls.
i liked this so much? i did really enjoy the other book that i read from this author but i wasn't expecting to like this book as much as i did. not a huge fan of witch books but this was DIFFERENT
God I love me a good creepy saphic found family ish type book
Must say that I saw the ‘twist' comming from a mile away tho
The body horror is exquisite. The three female characters are unique and I loved seeing them work together. The ending felt a little cliche, but the strength of the characters and their relationships to each other overcame a lot of my reticence about the ending.
I really enjoy Krystal Sutherland's writing and this book proved that. It was rather slower paced than House of Hollow but I had a good time.
