“Blue was perfectly aware that it was possible to have a friendship that wasn’t all-encompassing, that wasn’t blinding, deafening, maddening, quickening. It was just that now that she’d had this kind, she didn’t want the other.”

Blue Lily, Lily Blue (The Raven Boys, #3) by Maggie Stiefvater

I’m mad at myself because I really liked this one but it’s been since early September that I read it so I kind of forget the specifics of why. I think the next time I read this series I will just read them all back to back and then tab all my favorite bits. Most of which will be about Ronan. Does this make me basic? I don’t care. Basic things are awesome. That’s why they are basic. Also, just the way this series is […]

You could have done with having a BIT more happen, Maggie

Blue Sargent’s mother is missing, and it’s quite clear that time passes differently where she’s gone. This loss affects Blue deeply, although she has Mr. Grey around and her Raven Boys to take her mind off things. Blue, Gansey, Ronan, Adam and even Noah are still trying to find Glendover, looking in caves all over the area. They are told repeatedly that there are three Sleepers under the ground, and it is imperative that one of them not be woken. They now have the aid […]

    Yes, I am fun at parties. I too like parties where discussions on hierarchy and oppression abound!

    I love this series so much. It is ridiculous and defies serious reviewing. It’s got a lot of flaws and...

    It’s a standalone and those always seem to get less attention than the start of a series.
