Overall,
I have been getting away from young adult fantasy as I age, I have a more and more difficult time connecting to the characters. However I kept hearing how good this trilogy was so I figured I would give it a go. While not the freshest of story ideas, it is a compelling story that I was quickly engrossed in. There was enough foreshadowing that I wasnt surprised by most of the reveals, except that one at the end. I did not see that one coming. I will definately be continuing this series.
Recommendation,
A YA Fantasy (on the dark themed side of things) that I would say is at the older end of the spectrum for some of the darker themed elements (i.e. graphic torture) check some trigger warnings before starting. So far I am impressed and am enjoying this series.

I loved the characters and how they dealt with the mystery and challenges that they find themselves in.
By time I got to the end of the book I was so happy that I already had the sequel. The ending left my mouth agape and me reaching immediately for the sequel.
