ebonwilde 's review for:

The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater

3.0

---

this was... soft and cozy. hot chocolate on a winter morning. the feeling of curling under a blanket when the rain patters against your window. i'm not exceptionally obsessed with this like i thought i would be, but it was a lovely, poignant read. maybe it's because the two books i read before this were a bit.. underedited shall we say, or maybe it's just steifvater's writing quality itself, but this is a fantasy that actually feels like a fantasy. dreamy, ethereal, witchlights strung up in the whispering woods, faerie revels under the full moon. stunning.
