Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Riley ★★★★★

The pacing kept me flipping pages past midnight—each character’s twist in this bright world felt earned, not forced. The way the story shifts from sunny to sinister is subtle enough that I gasped at the reveal. Glad I picked up Series 1 first.

Lucy H. ★★★★★

The plot twists in this first series genuinely caught me off guard — I expected pure fluff from the "bright paradise" setup, but the character fates go somewhere darker and smarter. Sarah Becan's art style carries the mood shifts beautifully, and the paperback pages feel sturdy for repeated reads.

Stella ★★★★★

The fold-out art in Series 1 is what sold me—Sarah Becan’s linework makes the paradise feel both playful and eerie. I keep flipping back to the page where the fate twist lands, and it’s genuinely stuck with me.
