      I didn’t like red rising. But then I decided to listen to Golden Son audiobook. It was a 5 stars! It was so shocking. The audiobook allows you to get the jokes the characters are saying. And it brings you closer to the characters. Also Red Rising institute wasn’t my favorite. But the rest of the books are outside of the institute and Golden Son is sooo jam packed! I love it! I just wanted to say. I didn’t like the first one aswell. I loved the second one though! My fav in the entire series! I just finished Light Bringer the last book. Ok sry this was long!
