Blue Lily, Lily Blue by Maggie Stiefvater
5.0
"Blue had never believed in death until then."
"It was impossible to live life backward."
"Ronan, tell me now if I have to leash you, because I will."
The season for school is in. Maura is still gone. Greenmantle has moved to town. Our young adventurers are growing. The dangers are becoming more threatening than a man holding a gun. Ronan wants revenge for his father's death. Adam wants to make everything better, to fix all that is to happen before it does. Blue's heart is tangled and she wants her mom back. Gansey is closer to finding the king, closer to his death.
When I opened up Blue Lily, Lily Blue I had not expected so much to happen. Of course, a great deal as occurred in the previous two books; however, from page one I was put on a roller coaster of events. I am pleased with how the boys and Blue are growing, how well written out main and minor characters are, and the overall plot tying up nicely while still giving surprises. This book without a doubt has earned five stars. Stiefvater, as always, amazes me with her word choice and interesting voice for her books.
Blue and Ronan are by far still my favorite little ravens of the flock. I've decided, besides the fact I relate to the pair, I like them because they belong pretty much to the same personality box and yet occupy different corners. I have also not changed my stand on needing Blue and Gansey together no matter his fate as I believe one of them or all of them can save him. I cannot wait to see where all this leads to in [b:The Raven King|17378527|The Raven King (The Raven Cycle, #4)|Maggie Stiefvater|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1458745635s/17378527.jpg|24170172] in April. Though I should mention there were some hella cute moments between Adam and Ronan.
