They’re all so pretentious, but this is so good

End of Chapter One. Used a mixture of the book itself and the audiobook narrated by Donna Tartt. Found the first chapter very engaging and it introduces you to the main group of 5 (6 with Richard) students, and the professor, Julian, with a lot of vivid descriptions. The characterisation is great so far, and the descriptions of the college itself/ the landscape are beautiful.
