Pues ya tenemos estos tres libros en conjunto como uno de los mejores libros que he leído este año. Y sé que no soy objetivo, porque puedo señalar varias deficiencias que tiene la trilogía (de las que ya pecaba la saga de Los chicos del cuervo), entre ellas algunas de las elipsis que son excesivas, ir con calma y precipitarse al final... Por otro lado, esas elipsis excesivas hace que tengas que, como lector, rellenar muchos de los huecos y funciona muy bien, forma parte del estilo de la autora (y te da suficiente información para rellenarlos bien, aunque diré que el de Bryde/Matthew se me queda cojo y habría necesitado un PoV más).
En fin, que me han encantado, estoy a topísimo con Ronan y Adam, los quiero un montón.

it's over
and i don't know what i feel it's terrible it's my favourite serie and it's over
review to come maybe idk - but i stand by my position than a book on a full adam pov would have been better

Me faltaron mínimo como 150 páginas más ngl. Maggie sobresale en todo lo que escribe, pero los finales de saga/trilogía los apresura como si se le hubiera olvidado que ya no hay otro libro después (The Raven King
An amazing ending
What a great finale for such a great trilogy. Ronan, Declan and Matthew … the brothers Lynch for all time.

i feel like it's super clear that maggie has lost a lot of motivation for this series which makes me sad and more things happened offscreen than I would have liked. i would have liked to see some more character interactions. however, this series is my raison d’être and I loved a lot about this book. farooq-lane, burning. sociopath mór. declan getting his affairs in order before planning a shootout slash robbery because of course. declan’s daddy issues taking a total 180. ronan’s sweetmetal tattoo sleeve à la hennessy. so again, while imperfect, i am OBVIOUSLY GOING TO GIVE IT 5 STARS because on the seventh day the lynch brothers discovered they were friends once more??? because "good" because gansey (whoop whoop gansey boy??) asked adam and he said the same thing??? because without taking his eyes off the sky ronan reached his hand out to adam to offer him something and it was a ring and without taking his eyes off the sky adam took it and put it on ??? it was all very good indeed.
OH HAHA ANOTHER THING FIVE STARS FOR ADAM LEAVING HARVARD TBH I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS WEIRD LITTLE FREAK TO CREATE HIS OWN IMAGES OF SUCCESS FOR YEARS NOW. CHEERS.

okay. okay. righty-o. my favourite series ever comes to its (first) official end (i know it‘s not a second part of the ravenboys, STILL!). andddddd i can only say that if not for the last 5 pages, this would‘ve been even less in rating.
here‘s the thing: maggie is a fucking goddess at making places and characters come to life - it‘s like you‘ve lived their lives, kissed their mouths and walked in their shoes.
But what maggie is really terrible at is this: pacing. And that just ruins a lot!! This came to my attention during my first reread of trb and one would‘ve thought that she made some progress over 7(!) books. Her strengths prevail, but so do her faults in writing. Endings and solutions feel rushed. Characters sometimes get a little dent in their usual consistency and when you close the book for good, it leaves you unsatisfied.
The ending of Greywaren WAS what i wanted, i gotta admit. But knowing that the series won‘t continue and this is all we get? A little „OH BTW yeah umm gansey exists too, here he is.“ (im sorry i fucking KNOW that its separate and not a conclusion to tbr but u cant fucking tell me that the whole group just split up like that??? And they are NOT texting ronan, asking how he is? And the end scene with gansey suggests that after FOUR YEARS OF THE ACTUAL ENDING he finally gets together with ronan? HuHHhh????)
It just fouled the mood for me.
Since this felt and was so rushed, decisions of characters feel wrong. You‘re telling me that ronan and adam are actually living apart, travelling all the time instead of ronan‘s dream of living in a house, being all cowboy cottagecore fuckmaniac - and adam works for the GOVERNMENT. HE WORKS FOR THE GOVERNMENT nah dude. This is not my adam.
Also: the reveal that it was nathan all along felt soooo cheap. And so lazy. I dont fucking care about nathan. I wasnt made to care. What even was his fucking reason? And there was never an actual reunion with bryde? God.
Disappointing! :(((
I will read tbr forever tho.
This one - imma erase it from my memory.
The only good thing coming from this is Hennessy Jordan anf their relationship with ronan. Bruv.
