I mostly listened to this book - part of it was read to me from a physical copy by my lovely girlfriend, and then we finished listening to it on audio together. To be honest, I didn't find much to like here. It reminded me of the film Blair Witch Project, where the majority of it is a bunch of young people bickering in the way that young people do, and it doesn't actually get engaging until the very end. By the time the world-building plot kicked in, I was so confused on why we'd spent so long on random interpersonal dynamics between the characters. There were some whimsy and cozy fantasy aspects, but they felt lost in the school bullying dynamic to me. There are definitely things here that some readers will enjoy - I just am not one of them. Big rec for people who are still in school/university!
