“He was a book, and he was holding his final pages, and he wanted to get to the end to find out how it went, and he didn’t want it to be over.”

The Raven King (The Raven Cycle, #4) by Maggie Stiefvater

This was a very good series and I’m glad I read it. This final book is all the more impressive, knowing how sick the author was when writing it. It read sort of like a fever dream, and this series was already very dreamy. I did think The Moment we were all waiting for was completely anti-climactic, and the Glendower resolution was disappointing, but for me this series was not really about those things, but hanging out with these characters in their world and watching […]

This is a story about the brothers Lynch

Spoiler warning! This book is the third and final in the Dreamer trilogy, which in itself is a follow-up to the four-book Raven Cycle. It very much doesn’t stand on its own and won’t really make sense unless you’ve read the previous books. The place to begin is Call Down the Hawk, or if you want to read all the books about Ronan, Adam, and their friends, The Raven Boys. I’m going to be honest, while I normally love Stiefvater’s writing and willingly go along […]

“Declan had put his identity crises on hold multiple times for the greater good. Matthew had only been asked to do it once.”

Mister Impossible by Maggie Stiefvater

This is NOT the place to start if you’re not caught up. Begin either with the start of this trilogy, Call Down the Hawk, or with the start of the previous series (in which Ronan is an essential character), The Raven Boys. This book kicks off a little while after the rather dramatic cliffhanger that the previous book left us with. Ronan and Hennessey are fugitives from the Moderators, learning new and helpful tricks to deal with their mysterious hunters from the enigmatic Bryde. According […]

“She didn’t want this, she thought. She wanted to stop being afraid.. and she wanted a future that didn’t look exactly like her past. There had to be something they could do. This wasn’t living, it was just giving up while still breathing.” ― Maggie Stiefvater, Call Down the Hawk “Farooq-Lane’s fist smarted as if it had just been smashed against a douchebag’s face, because it had just been smashed against a douchebag’s face.” ― Maggie Stiefvater, Call Down the Hawk Spoilers for The Raven […]

“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.”

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 […]

And I had such high hopes

Swamp Thing: Twin Branches by Maggie Stiefvater

by Leave a Comment

When I first heard of Swamp Thing: Twin Branches I figured it was going to be how the human who is to be Swamp thing became ST like the TV show of the 1980’s. (Good camp, bad everything else.) And like many of the DC graphic novels, Maggie Stiefvater was going to have a teen boy come of age and then, turn into part of nature. I thought it was going to be bittersweet but still nice. Afterall, I always thought that this creature was […]
