This was more than what I expected. 
 I went to reading this book a bit reluctantly because of the mixed reviews about the writing style. Luckily, I decided to read it for a book club and I am glad I did. 
 Nevernight is a story about a girl called Mia who is living in a special world where there are 3 suns in the sky and night only comes every two years. When she was young her family was destroyed and she swears to take revenge on the men who did it. In order to have her vengeance, she seeks out a special sect (or church) where people train to be assassins. 
 I had some difficulties at the beginning to immerse myself in the story but once I got used to the eloquent writing style I really enjoyed the read and only found some short parts burdensome (like most of the footnotes). 
 What I liked most was the element of surprise that the author kept up until the end. I could only guess one or two plot twists and the rest were there to surprise me. The worldbuilding was really good too. I liked the fantasy elements and magic but also the fact that magic did not dominate the story. The heroin, Mia's character is well developed and likable most of the time. I admired how brave, hardworking and true to herself she is. 
 Also, it was interesting to see the psychological elements of a sect where the members should erase their true identity and become servants to a specific cause. Mia has many thoughts about her feelings and how they could make her weak but at the same time we see her struggle to maintain her humanity in the face of murder. 
 All in all, Nevernight was an interesting, action packed read with just enough tension to make you turn the pages. 
 I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series.
