If you like magic, mystery, and romance, I totally recommend these books!
I can’t think of a single book I’ve read before involving a high school’s secret society, so if that appeals to you, you should pick this book up!
While The Name of the Star was the better book for me, I still enjoyed this, I love the world and characters that Maureen Johnson has created, and I definitely recommend this series.
I didn’t love everything in this book but it was well-written and was one of those stories where I wasn’t always sure if what was going on was in the main character’s head or not, which I enjoy. If you like a more atmospheric tale where things are left to your imagination, this might be right up your alley.
I think this book has changed my mind on contemporary YA and romance. I’m certainly interested in reading more by Stephanie Perkins, and I definitely recommend this book!
I am definitely reading the next book in this series, and if you like supernatural YA, you should read this book!
I appreciate that the author was doing something different, but it all left me wanting more.
Everything that I liked about the first book was back in this one.
If you like contemporary YA – free from love triangles, zombies, vampires, dystopian or post-apocalyptic societies – with an interesting narrative structure, I definitely recommend this book.
