Genre: YA Fantasy
LOVED this. Grounded in Arthurian legend, voodoo, and modern day North Carolina. Addresses real-world issues while also delivering on the fantasy plot. Immediately ordered the second book in the cycle.

Less of a story and more of a reverie on humanity and what gives life meaning.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
Representation of autism and anxiety within the bounds of a healthy relationship, we love to see it. This one also, though, had a baffling third act choice that seemed to both appear and resolve out of nowhere.
⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/5
Interesting plot that really painted the picture of growing up in the Caribbean, but I wanted more character development. This was also the third book in three weeks that I read with (mostly off-page) SA as a plot device, and I’m just over it.
⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/5
I thought the mystery itself was well-constructed! The author made a choice to have the tone be very fourth-wall breaking and meta-aware, though, which I found distracting to the point of being annoying
