One of the first books I ever read when I was getting back into reading. I gave all the books in this series a five star when I first read them, so I am rereading them all now to give them a true rating. This one is probably my least favorite in the series - just waiting to get to the point where these characters are really thrown into the plot. I love Ronan and Adam, I would reread these books over and over again just to get all their interactions, but Blue could be gone from this series and I would not care. I have so many quotes saved from this book. Just excited to continue with this series for Ronan + Adam, and also just Ronan individually - fav character. Great writing, great world-building and themes. I remember thinking that someone could write a solid thesis on this series and I would read all of it.
