A review by ashlightgrayson
The Raven King by Maggie Stiefvater

Did not finish book. Stopped at 50%.

3.0

I did not finish this book. I got halfway through and I think the main problem I have with the series is the pacing. I feel that the author really wanted to focus on character development, but she spent so much time on it that by the time the plot really got going I stopped caring about what happened to anyone. The world is amazingly unique and intricate, and the characters are likeable, but I just never ended up feeling attached to any of them. I hope that this review doesn't discourage anyone from reading this series, because I think there is definitely an audience for it, I am just not a part of it. I do plan on trying to read other books by her because I've heard that they aren't paced quite like this one. We'll see how that goes.
