Here in Avalon by @notoriousdrtib is an intriguing story about family ties and dazzling yet cultish (?) cabarets! 🎭

🌟🌟🌟🌟

The positives: I loved the character developments of Rose and Cecilia! They were both complex characters that had a lot of baggage. However, their relationship somewhat improves. But, honestly, all of the characters were a little bit toxic in a way. The concept of β€œAvalon” is very amazing as well and the eccentric cast of characters are intricate! 🀩

I really wanted to enjoy Here In Avalon because the premise is fascinating! However, the writing was sometimes confusing. And the plot lines are often hard to follow.

All in all, Here In Avalon was a good book and I encourage everyone to create their own opinions about it. πŸ˜ŠβœπŸΌπŸ‘―β€β™€οΈβœ¨
