I liked this more than Scorpio Races. But I didn't love it. The book starts really slow. Nothing starts happening until about halfway through the book. It is interesting from that point on. The author did a good job of creating her characters and they felt real. I am a bit frustrated that the [spo...

The premise of this book really intrigued me. A girl who comes from a clairvoyant family…a group of four privileged "Aglionby Academy" boys as close as brothers…an old legend…and plenty of magic and mystery! I think this series has great potential, and to be honest this book has caught my eye for ...

Review after 2nd readBecause The Dream Thieves is coming out in a few days I re-read/listened to (whispersync rocks) The Raven Boys so that everything was fresh in my mind. “He strode over to the ruined church. This, Blue had discovered, was how Gansey got places - striding. Walking was for ordinar...

I decided to "reread" this (I listened to the audiobook the first time) before reading [b:The Dream Thieves|17347389|The Dream Thieves (The Raven Cycle, #2)|Maggie Stiefvater|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1367060081s/17347389.jpg|21598446], and I'm so glad I did. Not just because there ...

Rating: 4.5 StarsThe Raven Boys still falls short of The Scorpio Races and Stiefvater's Forever, but it improves considerably upon re-read. I'm sure that when the entire quartet is together as a whole, it will finally be wholly worthy of those 5 Stars. Needless to say, I enjoyed this far more the se...

Blue, our protagonist, is the only non-psychic in a house full of women blessed with the gift of foresight and even though she can't see the future herself she knows well enough to heed a psychics warning. So after years of being told if she ever kisses her true love he will die she pretty much swea...

This book was, honestly, one of the best books of 2012. Now, I'm not saying that everyone would enjoy it as much as me( but most likely), but for me it was the perfect book. I loved every last detail in this book and I am also quite glad that Maggie didn't do a too-bad cliffhanger that makes you wan...

Wow.This is a new record of mine.Abandoned, with not even a whit of hope that I'll read it in the future, before the second chapter.In fact, I didn't even finish the first chapter because I saw how it ended“There are only two reasons a non-seer would see a spirit on St. Mark’s Eve, Blue. Either you’...
