"Black history is Black horror."

I honestly have nothing else to say.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I‘m glad I gave this one another chance. So good! Twisty and turny YA horror story! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ash Woods wanted to enter Lancaster College to earn his Alchemy Certificate, but unaffiliated with a powerful clan he‘s denied entry. Working as a gardener he meets Ramsey Thorne who recognizes their latent power. Ultimately joined by Callum Kendrick they embark on a quest for the Book of Source.

As a younger reader, my parents allowed to read anything I chose. I should note that this YA book has explicit bits, but well suited to the story.

A lot was happening in the book, and it felt kinda disjointed. I wish it had focused on the characters and their relationships more. Both sets of couples went from enemies to madly in love without any real explanations. The ending was the best part of the book and made me want to read the second book. It wasn't a bad read, and the cover is gorgeous!

This book is exceptional. I am blown away, wrecked, and in awe. I both didn‘t want to put it down and had to take breaks from the brutality. Due honors every boy abused, tortured, and/or murdered in schools of this type. This is my first read from her. It won‘t be my last.

BarbaraBB Intrigued by your review. It seems a harsh read. 1mo
AmyG I need to bump this up. 1mo
sarahbarnes Wow. Great review. 1mo

squirrelbrain This was rumoured for the Women‘s Prize. Guess I need to read it anyway, although it sounds very tough. 1mo
Hooked_on_books @BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain It‘s brutal. And worth it. It would have been a worthy women‘s prize contender. 1mo

JUNIE is one of those books that practically reads itself. I feel like I‘ve hardly spent any time with it, yet I‘m already a hundred pages in. Knight‘s prose is deep and evocative without being performative, and her dialogue gives each character a strong voice. I can‘t wait to read on.

A little over 50% done and I can‘t put it down.
@rachelsbrittain

KAO I bought this book when I went to a book promo event with Due herself last fall! I haven‘t read it yet—and you just reminded me that I need to pull this one out! 1mo
Suzze @KAO That happens to me all the time. Someone‘s post reminds me that a book I own really needs to come off the shelf and into my hands! 1mo
