This used to be one of my absolute favorite books growing up. I was putting off rereading it for a little while because I only own one book in the series (Fire), and I knew that after I read them I’d want to own all of them. When this was featured in a dream of mine, though, I finally bit the bullet, and it was as good as I remembered. The drama of it all! I don’t know that I would be shocked by the plot twists if I read it for the first time as an adult, but I don’t have to be surprised to appreciate the storytelling. It felt like a bit of a homecoming to reread this book.
