The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater – review

book addict 98: 'I really liked the book a lot. It was a kind of book that I have not read before'
  
  


Nowadays not many of us believe in psychics, but know this story...

Blue had always believed in psychics and a psychic told Blue that if she kisses her true love, she will kill him. Her half-aunt Neeve and the TV psychic come up to her and tell her that she would fall in love that year - just imagine what Blue would have been going through!

On the Corpse Road (so they call it) Neeve and Blue perform a ritual in a ruined church. They watch for the spirits of folks who are going to die in the following year. Blue isn't a psychic, but she sees a real dead spirit. She stands there and asks for his name: Gansey.

Gansey, who is still alive, had spent the night looking for the ley line, a supernatural energy line that he believes in even though he's really too highly educated to be so gullible. He believes Glendower is buried somewhere along it.

The Raven Boys follows Blue as she is drawn to Gansey and his friends Adam, Noah and Ronan as they search for the ley line, which may be tied to the Corpse Road...

I really liked the book a lot. It was a kind of book that I have not read before. The concept was different.

The book was amazing from the start to end, but a bit detaching in the middle.

Enjoy reading!
