Thank you Netgalley for an e-arc in exchange for an honest review! 
The second death of Edie and Violet bond was just as good as it's cover!! This cover is beautiful, and the book was just as enthralling. Was easy to read in one sitting. This was like a YA paranormal murder mystery all in one. It gave me night circus vibes, the two sisters are currently with a group of all women that put on shows relating to their abilities with spirits beyond the veil. All with really cool abilities/concepts. Edie can pass between the veil, while her twin sister Violet can call spirits to her side on the living. I also really liked how this book tackled misogyny. I did find a spelling error but besides for that the story had a really good flow. Would recommend to any of my paranormal YA friends out there!

  True, True In this powerful and fast-paced YA contemporary debut, a Black teen from Brooklyn struggles to fit in at his almost entirely-white Manhattan prep school, resulting in a fight and a plan for vengeance. This is not how seventeen-year-old Gil imagined beginning his senior year—on the subway dressed in a tie and khakis headed towards Manhattan instead of his old public school in Brooklyn. Augustin Prep may only be a borough away, but the exclusive private school feels like it's a different world entirely compared to Gil's predominately Caribbean neighborhood in Brooklyn. If it weren't for the partial scholarship, the school's robotic program and the chance for a better future, Gil wouldn't have even considered going. Then after a racist run-in with the school's golden boy on the first day ends in a fight that leaves  only  Gil suspended, Gil understands the truth about his new school—Augustin may pay lip service to diversity, but that isn’t the same as
