A review by aritrigupta
The Archived by V.E. Schwab

4.0

That was a sweet first book in the series.
[a:V.E. Schwab|7168230|V.E. Schwab|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1511218938p2/7168230.jpg] comes up with absolutely delicious premises for her books. Dead people preserved on shelves in libraries. Hello, yes!
I'll be honest, like the other books by her that I've read, this took me some time to get in its groove, but once I was on, I sped through it with unabashed pace.
I liked Wesley Ayers a lot - confident, kind and smart male leads do so much for a book. Mac needs more before I like her, and I suppose that trajectory is one of the things that worked for this very popular series. The lore built around The Archive is so fascinating that I cannot wait to read more about it.
I have started on book 2 as I write this review. So, that sums up how much I enjoyed [b:The Archived|10929432|The Archived (The Archived, #1)|Victoria Schwab|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1338729878l/10929432._SX50_.jpg|15846509].
