To be honest, this young adult mystery thriller book was difficult to read because it involves misogyny and transphobic bullying. I had high hopes for this book and love the cover of it! It just wasn’t my kind of book at all. I felt like it was all over the place! It goes through timelines, starting off in 1899. It involves a psychic that is not truthful and a lot of family drama. Overall, I rate this book a 1 out of 5 stars.

Content Warnings: death, misogyny, body horror gore, classism, kidnapping, bullying, and transphobic bullying

Thank you NetGalley, author Jamison Shea and Macmillan Children's Publishing Group | Henry Holt and Co. (BYR) for this digital advanced reader’s copy in exchange for my honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Part mystery-thriller, part magical fantasy with a touch of Pandora's box vibes thrown in, this story follows a teen named Winnie Bray on an adventure with a box that seems to be calling for her. Apollo and Cyrus Rathbun, two cousins from a well-to-do family also feel the call of the box. The book flashes back to the history of the Rathbun family as it relates to this mystical creepy box as well as Winnie's grandmother's knowledge of the box. All roads lead to a showdown over the box and it is a well-paced enjoyable adventure along the way.
