Pacing is still kind of all over the place though, with the first part being too slow and the ending too fast.

i also loved priory––i think it was fantastic––but for me, there's been a marked improvement in samantha shannon's writing between the two. a day of fallen night gives itself time to breathe, has pitch-perfect pacing, and doesn't fall prey to the same "and then all this happened btw and now we're here" telling-not-showing issue that priory does.
this book made me feel a way i haven't felt in 20 years at least. i truly cannot wait to read all 868 pages again
