This book is phenomenal and exceeded all of my expectations!  I understand the hype around Sarah J Maas now.  The world of the book is interesting and feels like no other book I've read.  The characters are amazing.  This book is dark, but also so funny at times.  The main character, Bryce, might be my favorite book character ever.  The last 200 or so pages had me in such a grip that I crammed the 800 page book into my carry on for a flight because I could NOT put it down!  Amazing book.  Cannot recommend it enough.
