    Kind of reminded me of A Christmas Carol in concept. Like his other books, this one had some really great themes. But at times it also dragged for me and I had a hard time feeling really connected to the story.

    Premise was fun, but I ended up struggling with the main character A LOT. I get that anxiety can make you unintentionally self centered without realizing it, but this often felt over the top. And the “twist” honestly frustrated me. Made me feel rushed in the last act to apparently ship who I was supposed to ship the whole time.

    I’m feeling iffy about this book so far for many reasons, but its not helping to hear something ridiculous like a newly graduated teacher being unable to find a job because the field only wanting teachers with 5+ years experience. As someone working in education…it’s laughable. The field is DESPERATE. Where did the author get that idea???

    Struggling getting into this one. Perhaps because I just adored The Midnight Library so much that I was unintentionally expecting this one to be just as magical?
