My primary concern is that at the end of all the books so far, there's been this giant cliffhanger and then the next book touches on that element but casts aside a lot of the other big plot points (i.e. Gansey's imminent death, Blue's first kiss, and even Glendower - who is supposedly the primary reason any of these books are happening in the first place). It makes me worry that The Raven King won't actually wrap up the story and I'll be left feeling hollow and confused at the finale of the series. However... I'm not there quite yet.
I will say that I enjoyed the character development a lot in this book. Before this book, I hadn't really liked Ronan or Adam and I appreciated them a lot more in this one. I still love Gansey best. Blue is getting even more badass, which is great.
Sooooo I guess I'll have to see what comes next.
