Blue Lily, Lily Blue by Maggie Stiefvater

Blue Lily, Lily Blue (Raven Cycle Series #3)This is the third book in the Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater. Click on the links to read my reviews on The Raven Boys, book one of the series, or The Dream Thieves, which was book two.

I don’t want to ruin it for you if you haven’t started the series, so there will be no spoilers here 🙂 However, I must vehemently encourage you to run to the nearest book store and buy these books. Or run to the library and get them (where I got this particular book!) for free!

Witty, likable Blue is back, and so are her Raven Boys. They’re getting closer to finding the buried un-dead body of a Welsh King who will grant them any wish. But things are getting more complicated – they’re no longer the only ones looking for him. And add in Ronan’s bewildering skills and those that hunt for him, Adam’s new powers, and a blooming secret romance between Blue and super ridiculously hot Gansey, and you’ve got a potent and twisting narrative that will keep you flipping pages until you’ve finished the whole darn thing. Be warned: You will not want to put this down. Cancel your dinner plans.

And, if you haven’t started the series yet, you have the luck of reading books one through three all at the same time! No waiting for you! That is, until you’ve finished. We’re all waiting breathlessly for book four, which will hopefully come out soon so I can stop obsessing about it.

Stiefvater is easily one of the most talented writers in today’s market. The words are poetic and beautiful, yet the plot is captivating and doesn’t get bogged down. If I could fly to Henrietta and join them on their hunt, I would.
