5.0

it’s honestly a fact at this point that V. E. Schwab out does herself with every new release and this was definitely true for Gallant. this book had consumed me body mind and soul. her magic on paper translates so well to the magic of reading her words. 
Gallant is such a a hauntingly atmospheric book. there were certain points were I had literal chills reading it and i also found myself holding my breath awaiting something thrilling. 
the fact that our main character Olivia does not have a voice and her cousin Matthew cannot read her words form an intriguing communication barrier between the two residents of Gallant that Schwab has masterfully executed. 
i loved reading this and V. E. Schwab isn’t my favourite author for nothing hahaha
a definite 5 stars
