The ending takes this down a star for me. It's like that crap HBO pulled with the Sopranos. It just cuts off with nothing to come after. I liked this but it's a bit unrealistic when you consider how easily Dee and her friends accept everything that's happening to her. No one questions anything and I...
Lament made me happy sigh, nearly to the point of ecstasy. Considering that, I have absolutely nothing relevant to say in terms of a review. My inner fourteen-year-old girl was hooked like this was crack, thus basing my rating solely on how reading the book made me feel. I have no unbiased analys...
2, maybe 2.5 stars if I'm feeling generous. Couldn't relate to Deirdre (Dee) at all and was horribly annoyed by her sudden transition into Super Magic Girl. No training, no warning, all of a sudden she just did it...and she kept doing it, all through the book. Seriously, all she had to do was think ...

You can see disappointment written all over my face. *sigh* This is not what I expected from this book or from Maggie in general.

“You're like a song that I heard when I was a little kid but forgot I knew until I heard it again.” ― Maggie Stiefvater, Lament: The Faerie Queen's DeceptionOk, as regular readers will know I have a pretty big author crush on Maggie Steifvater. I loved the Shiver series, ADORED The Scorpio Races, an...
When I read Shiver a while back, I wasn't thrilled with the story or the characters, but I still put the book down feeling like Stiefvater had some real writing skills. So I decided to give Lament a chance, because fairies. I am glad that I did, but...While I was reading Lament, I really liked it. D...
I didn't like it at first and found it difficul to go on but after a while the story captivated me and i found myself enjoying it. It's quite beautiful really.
Deirdre Monaghan is a gifted harpist with a consistent case of stage fright. She knows, without a doubt, that sometime before a performance she’ll need to vomit. We meet Dee on her way to a music competition and she is exactly like she always is - a jumble of nerves. As soon as she gets checked i...
