Nocticadia Questionnaire

Number of Stars (1-5):

3.5  Based on the intro of the novel, I thought it was leading to being a paranormal read. I was a smidge disappointed it wasn't. Another thing was the science lingo 😵‍💫 I did not feel smart enough to fully understand, but I definitely got the importance of it. Lastly was the professor/student trope. It's not one of my well-liked so the back and forth between them in the beginning was a bit of an ick. It faded away after Lilia became a research partner.

 Aside from that, I really like the mystery of the b-plot and I feel it all tied together amazingly.

Favorite Main and Minor Characters:

Devryk would be my favorite main character. He was snarky and easily irritated by other characters to my liking. Spencer would be my second favorite because I feel so bad for his character. He was a scapegoat for nearly everyone and he was genuinely trying to be a good guy. 🥲

Favorite Quote:

I wish I had one, but nothing comes to mind. If I'm allowed to swap this for a favorite scene, I'd say Angelo's punishment. I'm glad they did not go easy on him. 👿

If this book were a fancy drink what would it be:

I don't really know. With the cover as inspiration and the contents of the book, I feel something with a midnight blue coloring to it. Kind of like contrast of the black butterflies with the blue hue in the pics we made earlier. 🦋Also, something mixed with vodka definitely feels appropriate. 

What does your imagined furniture for our main couple look like:

Given the setting, old academic and old money type furniture. Something that is gothic and antique and definitely dark. It would have a scholarly feel to it. I'm thinking like a grandpa's old study with large wood bookshelves and Edwardian desk and chairs. 🧐 Colors would be deep greens, blues, with some browns. 

Tell us one thing that suprised you about the book:

Definitely finding out who actually had beat up Spencer. For a while, I thought Devryk was bluffing about not doing it. Then, who really drugged Lilia. I really thought it was Spencer. 🥲 Another thing was the affair between Spencer's dad and Mel. Like, ew. 🤢

Did you enjoy this read? Will you join the next one and if so what things would you like to see?

I did enjoy this read! Depending on the next pick, I might join again. Something fantasy or paranormal would be fun, but not mandatory.
