"it was said the literati of the Romantic era had written their magnum opuses in its candlelit corners. That jewels flashed in the shadows as the mistresses of the rich & powerful tested their diamonds on the Venetian mirrors, leaving behind scratches like the ones they left down their lovers' backs. That in Lapérouse, politics mixed with poetry & became pillow talk on velvet love seats the color of spilt wine." omg

ONLY could Beverly Jenkins make me wish I lived during Reconstruction with the way she writes Black life. because baby, fuck that fr

feeling these vibes so far

stopping to Google every creature mentioned. Strange Beasts is right... glaistig, cockatrice, grindylow, oh my

Beverly Jenkins never misses. I can already tell I'm going to love this story

trying to find a Black thriller that’s not a murder mystery or features cops < 🫩🫩🫩 send recs, PLEASE

I’m shook fr. this feeling like a 5 star read !!

mind... BLOWN... like ???

finally reading again after a mini-slump !! 💪🏽

this is such a good mystery

the mystery is mystery-ing!

I’m hooked so far but I need to get to bed 😅

was super dull, now a lil less dull

Beth... is irking my nerves...

ts is kinda ass... maybe it's because my bg is in social work, but the author calling ppl with substance issues "broken" is pissing me off

the way each chapter ends is like “blah blah blah, but that’s the way the cookie crumbles…” so corny & formulaic

for a paranormal thriller, ts boring so far

"I also don't blame them for their envy. when you shine brighter than the sun, it's hard for others to look at you, so you have two choices: look and be blinded with resentment or look away." OH BROTHER THIS GUY Michael STINKS, already 😒 the way he is talking about his sisters... yuck
