As usual, 16-year-old Blue is spending St. Mark’s eve in an abandoned churchyard waiting for the spirits of those who are destined to die in the next year. It’s not that Blue can see those walking spirits herself. Unlike the rest of her close knit, all-female family she is not a psychic, but because...
I've sat here with the blinking cursor for quite sometime unsure of what I wanted to say about this book. I easily wavered between anywhere from 2-4 stars (hence my final choice of 3.) This book started off hella slow and by the end I couldn't put it down. That being said it took so long to get into...

Mi piace molto il suo stile, e poi io adoro i libri scritti in terza perso...

In addition, many of my favourite bloggers absolutely RAVED about the book... so... I really liked it. I loved some parts of it, truly, truly loved some other, and yet ...
I'm still trying to get through a large pile of things to review, so I'll try to keep this as concise as I can. (Also, luckily, I don't have much to complain about.)I have been a fan of Maggie Stiefvater for years now. I read the Books of Faerie, The Wolves of Mercy Falls, and The Scorpio Races. All...
If I had read this at the age that this book is actually written for, I'm not sure I wouldn't love it to pieces. There are a number of aspects I'm sure teenage me would be swooning over.
