i really enjoyed the first book in the series! took a good while for me to properly get into, as there’s a lot of world + character building and it’s hard to grasp and appreciate why it’s all so important until you get to when the main group of characters meet. but once they do, the story flows extremely easily from there. blue, gansey, ronan, adam and noah have such a good dynamic that’s so easy to read and follow. truly fell in love and really cared about their story and their journey. really well written and i cant wait to start on the rest of the series.
would definitely recommend, but it just takes a while before it gets properly into it. be patient!

definitely not a triggering read but there are some things u wanna look out for! like murder, blood, abuse, ritual + sacrifice.
