AnnaBnana's Reviews > The Raven Boys

I thought this book was super. It was a little slow to start for me, but once I was in it, I was really in it. I'm particularly excited for more in the series now that the groundwork is all laid out and we can focus on the really intersting relationships happening between the characters.

Blue is the daughter of a psychic -- part of a wacky family of gifted and talented folks, but she feels like she doesn't belong. Her only gift is to make those around her more talented at their work. To add insult to injury, she isn't psychic, but she can't be a normal teenager either because of a vague premonition that if she kisses her one true love, he will die.

Enter Gansey. He might be her one true love. But his friend Adam might be, as well. They're part of a group of private school boys, who, with 2 other friends have been searching for a ley line and for Glendower, a king who may or may not be alive after centuries somewhere on the line.

This book is filled with magic and romance, with friendships, and with the general struggles we all go through trying to find out where we fit. I can't wait for more.
