slow-paced

3.75

This took me way too long to find motivation to read it, and the only reason I finally did was because the audiobook was created and made available. The audiobook didn't perfectly sync with this version of the book but overall it was close enough. I did buy this book initially but I don't think I'll keep it, probably will donate it to a local library or put it in a little free library.
I think the beginning was overall sort of slow and eventually picked up as things really started to happen. For me, there was a bit that could've been cut to make the story move along faster. 
I like the characters a lot and generally like the premise. Probs one of my favorite dark academia books I've read so far (I've read a few and don't usually really like them that much with an exception or two). I will def continue the series because I'd like to know what happens to the characters. Honestly I don't think I would continue the series without audio assistance tho
