*le sigh* I just absolutely adored this book! In all honesty, I think it might be better than the Raven Boys... and the Raven Boys was one of my favorite reads of 2013! But part of me sad I read this book now. Because that means I'm going to have to wait sooooooooo long for book three! *sobs*
I've got to admit, I wasn't Ronan's biggest fan prior to this book. I mean, I never hated him or anything, but... well, he's kind of a jerk. And as The Raven Boys didn't center around him, so his redeeming features weren't very apparent then. They are here. Oh boy they are. Needless to say, there is not an ounce of dislike left in me toward him.
As for the rest of the characters... well, Noah was as adorable as ever. Blue and Gansey showed some progress (and then regress...), Adam was kind of hateful for most of the read (I didn't like how he behaved toward Gansey's kindness in book 1, didn't like it in book 2, either), but I think he just might be snapping out of it for book 3.
Then we got a couple of new characters I was shocked to love! First...
