Who's heard of second book syndrome?? Not The Dream Thieves, I can tell ya that much. So so so good!!! I am so invested in these characters. I swear I'm seeing things everywhere that remind me of these books. I saw a person the other day in front of an ice cream shop that looked exactly the way I picture Richard Campbell Gansey III. I love the way Ronan's character is progressing, and really how all the the characters are developing. I was living for the angst of Blue and Gansey's suppressed feelings for each other, and Adams rejection was painful but necessary. I love the dynamic between Maura, Calla, and Persephone. It's always a treat when we get to spend time with the adults of the story. And what a surprise the Gray Man was. Who knew a hit man could be so strangely wholesome. As far as villains go, Kavinsky was not my cup of tea. He was super annoying though, so I guess job well done. The villains so far have been a little weak, imo, but that doesn't really matter to me. This is a character heavy series and I'm loving it so far. Can't wait to start the next one. It's been so long since I've read a series, let alone one that I really loved.
