The Devil Makes Three
When Tess and Eliot stumble upon an ancient book hidden in a secret tunnel beneath the school library, they accidentally release a devil from his book-bound prison, and he'll stop at nothing to stay free. He'll manipulate all the ink in the library books to do his bidding, he'll murder in the stacks, and he'll bleed into every inch of Tess's life until his freedom is permanent. Forced to work together, Tess and Eliot have to find a way to re-trap the devil before he kills everyone they know and love, including, increasingly, each other. And compared to what the devil has in store for them, school stress suddenly doesn't seem so bad after all.

Wow this was a rollercoaster of a ride.
Tess and Elliot were great opposites. They come from different backgrounds but find common ground by the end of the book. It turns out they have a lot more in common than they think which helped build the relationship between them. I enjoyed the banter between the two of them and loved getting to see how sweet Elliot got to be towards Tess. They were a great balance for each other.
I loved the setting and the creepy paranormal elements. This book had some dark moments in it which I really enjoyed and they often made me wonder what was real and what wasn't. The pacing was perfect and I'm glad I read this with friends because I was really able to savor it but by the last hour I just couldn't stop listening. There's a little surprise at the end and even though this is a standalone it leaves you hoping for more.
I loved the enemies to lovers trope within this dark YA horror. The audio was well developed and I liked that we got duel POV's with a male and female narrator.
Thank you to RB Media and NetGalley for the copy.

Plot wise it was interesting, but the story felt underdeveloped. Things were not as fleshed out as I would've liked. Also, though I did appreciate the effort to make the writing style lean towards lyricism, I can't say that it was successful. In multiple moments I felt like it was meandering and repetitive in structure, which was exhausting to read despite this being a short-ish book. Loved the gorey scenes!
