if this wasn’t cindy, i would’ve never read this. if this wasn’t cindy, i would have DNFd by now. but i like cindy, so ill give her some extra grace, plus the fact this is an ARC is important. so far, it leaves quite a bit to be desired

get a better copywriter.

AMELIA WOKE UP in the middle of the night and remained conscious for the next hour. She resorted to wandering inside the library and reading several books to lure herself back to sleep.

is corin stupid?
