Same writing quality and better characterisation for Ronan, Noah (in the beginning), and further explorations of Gansey, Blue, and Adam. However, between Kavinsky's constant (and purposeful) misogynistic comments and Blue's own misogynistic thoughts at Orla... it takes away from the book. Also, the plot doesn't quite hold up, either. <spoiler)I don't understand how Ronan could've been meant to dream something to solve a problem he didn't know he had? The puzzle box ends up being more of a mcguffin than anything else. Also Ronans entire problem is simply because his dad is an ass and never thought him how to dream.

Another downfall is that I simply do not enjoy Gray Man pov.

I just finished rereading, and this book is definitely my favorite out of the series. It’s such an adrenaline rush. You know that feeling at the beginning of summer, where it’s like anything is possible? That’s what this book feels like.
