I have to stop consuming books at insane speeds. I read this one and The Raven King in like. a day and a half. Yeah so it’s good.

Also, there’s a surprising amount of one-liners that make me laugh out loud or make me gasp too loudly. Love writing like that!!

If you thought the first and second book was fucked up and evil, this one will be a treat!

Honestly, I didn’t expect to love this series so much. (Maybe if I didn’t use it as a distraction during finals it wouldn’t be that way but whatever). I don’t know how to explain how captivating it was. From what I’d heard online, I definitely underestimated how good it actually would be, and I’m presently surprised.

even though i knew about neil and andrew from the beginning (bc i’ve heard about this book for YEARS). “that doesn’t mean i wouldn’t blow you” still hit me like a truck. im glad i was alone during that scene and not on an airplane anymore bc i almost yelled

ALSO THE WHOLE PART OF THE BOOK WHERE IT SWITCHES FROM NEIL TO NATHANIEL. THAT. THAT THAT THAT. that .

also. i have no idea how i ended up loving andrew so much. when did that happen.
