omfg. i really love this book. it’s so interesting to see how it all unfolds, even when you are told what will happen at the beginning. and while the plot is fucking amazing and incredibly well developed, i personally find that the way in which donna tartt writes is what makes this book so grand and what keeps you wanting to read more.
