3.5 stars, this was a pretty good book. Some of the writing is a little cliche, but overall an enjoyable book.

Loved it. Lots of twists and turns I didn’t see coming. Love the setting of the book, the characters are both loveable and infuriating at times. Great cliffhanger that had me yell at the end.

Just felt really boring and predictable to me. I may have enjoyed this as a teenager but now I just wasn’t enjoying it enough to bother finishing.

I was a bit skeptical of this when starting the re-read, but loved it all the same by the end!
