Stiefvater has gotten her groove back (at least in my eyes)! I love the amount of Blue-Gansey content. I also felt that the plot was more concise, and everything was tied together. I am heading into the final installment happy to be continuing and sad to be near the end.

The beginning is super slow and then the ending feels way too fast. Adam in particular has great character development. The plot of this one isn't super great but the character interactions are wonderful.

It's definitely better than the second book and the plot is moving, though I think this should have been the second book.

The characters were okay, but some of their povs their the most annoying thing ever and they're thinking the same thing over and over again while barely anything is happening.

I remember after reading a first book I was so excited and thinking that everything is just quiet before the storm but it's been three books and no storm...
