Initial Response
Oh. My. Gosh. I LOVE THIS BOOK SO STINKING MUCH.

High Lights
- Okay, so I can't coherently put my thoughts together, so I'm just going to be really basic and say I LOVE EVERYTHING.
- THE CHARACTERS. AGGGHHH.
- THE SETTING. PHENOMENAL.
- THE WRITING STYLE. SOOOOO GORGEOUS AND I'M IN LOVE AND I WANT TO READ EVERY MAGGIE STIEFVATER BOOK THERE IS NOW.
- so yeah everything pretty much.

Low Lights
- Not of fan of the swearing, but that's a minor detail that doesn't ruin the story for me.

Conclusion
Wow, so was that even a review? XD No, not really, but GUYS. THE WRITING STYLE IS MAGICAL. IT WILL SUCK YOU IN. I'm so glad I gave this book a shot, because I'VE FOUND A NEW FAVORITE. Sorry for this ranting, explosive, caps-locked filled nonsense. XD Please, just reeeead the booook.

Reread (2022): Just as phenomenal on a reread, perhaps MORE so… since I know what’s to come in the next 6 books.
In the small town of Henrietta, Virginia, a place simultaneously grounded and magical, mundane and mystical, Blue — the daughter of a psychic — knows to stay away from the local prep school boys. Yet she finds herself drawn into their search for a sleeping Welsh king through Latin-speaking forests and corpse roads.
CW: gun violence, domestic abuse

Original review (2020): This book was ADDICTING. I made the mistake of listening to the audiobook at night on a 25-min timer and every night I would be wide awake at the end of the timer, wishing I had set it for longer.

The writing style surprised me constantly, so many clever moments and compelling characters and driving mystery. I need the next one immediately!

I read this book with my school's book club, and I really enjoyed it! I loved the characters, I enjoyed the premise, and the writing style was fun and immersive. This is a really good book, and I DEFINITELY recommend it.
