We didn't get to see much of the brainwashing/cult mentality of the Ravens in the first trilogy of this series, so Jean's inner monologue is pretty jarring right away. 

Aside from that, I can't help but laugh at the way he sees the others. Andrew is "that creepy little goalkeeper" and I had to highlight all the names Jean calls Neil. "Tedious malcontent" and "abominable cockroach" are my favorites. 

This book is mostly character-focused, and SUCH characters at that. I love well-rounded characters with a backstory, characters you feel like you really get to know. Jean's journey from branwashed cult member to finally starting to stand up for himself is incredible. I cried multiple times.

I'm going to start the next book ASAP.
