Gansey and his three best
friends attend an elite boarding school and are known as the Raven Boys. Gansey keeps the group together with his
drive to find the ley line-a magical and powerful place where he hopes to find
answers that he has been searching for.
While the Raven Boys are researching the ley line, they decide to try
visiting a psychic and they befriend the psychic’s daughter Blue. The boys and Blue encounter danger and
obstacles in their attempt to find what they are looking for.
Stiefvater is an amazing writer. Her descriptions make the characters feel real and by the time I got to the end of the book I loved
all of them. This is the first book in
the series so many answers aren’t found, but I will continue to read the whole series,
simply to spend more time with these great characters. The language makes it advisable, otherwise it
would be essential.
HS-ADVISABLE. Reviewer, C. Peterson.
