The Good Demon tells the story of Clare who has her demon excircised out of her against her will and now tries to find a way to get Her back.

The writing had a nice flow to it and it really caotured the spooky atmosphere. I also really like that, when things were seemingly happy and calm, you could still always feel something darker bubbling beneath the surface.

I will say that how Clare comes to some conclusions didn't akways make sense to me, and I would've liked both the character development and world building (how the magic works and what it does) to have been stronger.

At its core The Good Demon is a unique exploration of addiction, which I thought was really well done and enjoyed a lot. 3.5🌟
