I loved this book. I was very skeptical because of how much hype this has received even before it's release date.

I will warn you that there are a lot of characters mentioned. I made it 17% of the way through the book and had no idea which character was which so I started over and wrote down all the characters and their traits as I came across them. I did this for the first quarter of the book and came up with 21 different characters. After that the name dropping slowed down and the story started to progress with just the main characters.

I am a sucker for boarding school with secrets trope. The main characters are very developed and felt like real people, The atmosphere of the book was so creepy and ominous. I could just picture the school in my mind like a movie. I really enjoyed the writing and the main plot of the story.

I was intrigued from beginning to end and would highly recommend this book.
