I enjoyed this book! It had dark academia vibes minus the academia. There was a lot of worldbuilding and the amount of magical elements could get overwhelming at times but I loved the creativity and all the themes that were touched on in this book. The main characters in YA novels can be a hit or miss for me but Laura was such a funny character to follow.

This was a unique sort of family saga that explores the relationships between parents and their children. The story was set throughout California (and not just LA!) from the 1950s to the 1980s to present-ish day.
