Loveddddd this book!
The pacing was great, keeping you in suspense while being balanced with slower scenes were we got to know the characters more. We really got to know our fast way better, and explore new dynamics between them.
The action scenes were really well done and all served a purpose in furthering the plot.
The nods to the classic fairy tales were all really nicely woven in
The book also did a great job of getting everything into place for Winter without feeling stagnant, you could tell the writing was really purposeful and Meyer’s talent really shone in this one
