God, yes, this was so good!
When I read this the first time, I had this idea that the story was “slow” but it worked in its favor. And now, as a more experienced reader if you will, I have figured out that that is only half true.
What is true is the fact that the book (and really, the series as a whole) is not as action-packed or fast-paced in the same way a lot of other YA fantasy is (think Throne of Glass, Heroes of Olympus, Shadowhunter Chronicles, etc.), but it's not slow. Tons of things happen, and the pacing is simply perfect. It works incredibly well for this type of mystery. I love how the reveals always feel earned because of all the foreshadowing. It's just so good!
Sigh. Moving on to the next as quickly as possible omg.
