Soon she's got a new best friend, a potential boyfriend, and is surrounded by a group of girls who want the photoshoots and fame for themselves. But there's a darkness in the house, and a darkness growing in Isa, too. When girls start getting hurt, it's clear that somethingor someonein the house is growing in power, with deadly intentions.

This is a “gothic” feel read while still keeping things modern. Social media influencer, dark Victorian house with a dark entity and voila you‘ve got this book. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1/2 stars.

This was pretty fascinating as it combined a teen Instagram influencer with a gothic vibe when her family moves to to an old home that has historic significance. Isa becomes obsessed with Isabella and attempts to recreate her looks and poses. But something dark inhabits the house too!
Thanks to #NetGalley for this ARC!
