This was my second reading of The Raven Boys and I loved it no less than I loved it the first time, something I doubt you can say for many books. The characters are wonderful, each of them unique in their own ways, and the plot is excellent as well. Overall the writing has a magic to it, a magic tha...
Another re-listen so I can start [b:The Dream Thieves|17347389|The Dream Thieves (The Raven Cycle, #2)|Maggie Stiefvater|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1367060081s/17347389.jpg|21598446]. Squeeeee!Here's my original review.

And so much better - so much more - than any blurb or description made me expect.I was (and still am) intrigued by the plot, but it was the characters, and their interactions, th...
I hate being left on the sidelines, I hate it when everybody raves about a book and I am left by myself in the downers bench wondering if we read the same book. I hate giving out 2 star reviews and abandoning books. I do, I really, really do. But... I have a bone to pick with Authoress Stiefvater's ...
