Where Sleeping Girls Lie by Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé

Did not finish book.
dnf at 25%. it’s a slow burn to the point that there isn’t even an ember in the fire pit. the dark academia vibes are really just an english boarding school. biggest issue i had was the characterization of the teens. i can understand the plot choice of the unholy girls, rich boys, and cops not caring. but for baz to be happy making jokes about being sherlock, asking to get dinner in town when he’s meant to be looking for elizabeth? if elizabeth is really baz’s pseudo-twin, why doesn’t his sickened agony during class hours carry over to the town visit??? just not worth my time going further with it.
