Okay, this book was as good as I remembered - which also made me notice that my English has gotten significantly better since the first time reading this lmao.
Now to the book itself - it pains me to do it, but back in 2016 my teenage brain thought it was so good (could also be because I watched the movie first and Nicholas Hoult had me in a choke-hold) that it deserved 5 stars, but now years later after a reread it might be a 4.5 star. Marion can be very descriptive in some of his scenes, but his writing is spectacular. Unfortunately it gives me mild LOTR flashbacks and for a book that's advertised as YA (pretty sure it's not YA), it should not be that deep (in my opinion). But despite that little fact the characters are likeable.
