reread !! favourite series ever. i loved it even more this time, if that’s possible. i was able to catch all the quirky comments & foreshadowing that i missed the first time. m*ggie & i are in a fight but her writing style is so !! i have dedicated my thoughts to this book series, its accompanying series & their characters for more than a year of my life. i don’t know what else you want me to say. oh, that i would d-word for adam, ronan, gansey, noah & blue ? yeah.

Love the concept of this book! Dark and mysterious with some mysticism. I really enjoyed getting to know each of the characters and appreciated that you get multiple perspectives from each member of the raven boys and Blue. Full of twists and turns!

I read this book with my school's book club, and I really enjoyed it! I loved the characters, I enjoyed the premise, and the writing style was fun and immersive. This is a really good book, and I DEFINITELY recommend it.
