PG-13.
Blue and her Raven boys are
trying to figure out how to save Gansey because of the prediction that he would
not live through the year. With that
main concern, Blue and Gansey are also trying to navigate their feelings for
each other without breaking up their group.
Ronan’s connection to his dream world is blurring the lines with the
real world. Through all of their dream
and real world problems, the Raven Boys and Blue Sargent watch each other’s
backs and try to save what they love.
This book is so well written. I
love all of the characters and the creative world that Steifvater makes feel
real. As the final book in the series it
has a satisfying conclusion and I will miss reading about these great
characters. Note the swear count and the
mature content includes homosexual kissing, underage drinking and drug use. This book would be essential, except for the
content.
HS – ADVISABLE. Reviewer, C. Peterson.
