The Raven King by Maggie Stiefvater
4.0
3.5 stars
Wasn't really impressed by the audio reread.
Too little Noah, reread didn't really make things clearer, I love Henry don't get me wrong but why was he only introduced so late in the series??? Would have been so much fun if he had been there earlier.
The way things wrapped up just wasn't all that great and felt kinda like the author went scrambling like "oh shit right I have to wrap all of this up somehow" and came up with something on the fly. Idk.
I hoped the reread would make more sense, and make me change how I felt about the book like it did for the first three of the series, but nope, I felt pretty much the same about The Raven King as on my first read.
Still, I enjoyed the audio reread immensely, and appreciated a lot of things very differently (more so in the first three books than this one). The narrator did a good job with the voices, and made me like the non-Gangsey chapters a lot, despite me disliking them when I first read the books.
