It saves luckily itself

Content: The earth is moved by energy in the form of lines. And there is a king of a lie, if you can find him and wakes, fulfilled a wish. Gansey and his friends have set a goal to be found this king and thanks to Blues means they seem to be taken another step forward.

Review: Uff! With this book, I have been through something. Las quite slow and distracted mind. It was a constant up and down with me and The Raven Boys.

On the one hand I felt made the dialogues and the writing style in some places very great, often had to smile at Blues comments or her aunts. Maggie stepfather manages skillfully to pack little punch in dialogue, so that they receive a certain whistle and the characters may look very human and sympathetic. But then there were dialogues, in which the individual conversation constituents somehow seemed less than babbled each to himself, without context. But fortunately came only once or twice before.

Even if I find the background story now really interesting, really could not grab me at the beginning. The first two-thirds were very slow, sometimes tedious passages. Began even briefly another book, but felt bad and took it back to this one.

The first half roughly treated so much the characters, until the end finally comes to power. Although I once since long had to fight until I could suffer the characters. There's just something special each, has some bad past, experiencing at the same time something tragic or just failed eccentric. Just a collection of many perfectly conceived characters. A spark of normality was truly missed by me.

Especially Gansey and his boys helped. Gansey in itself is sympathetic, but to have to determine its own way of life of his friends - and they even hear him - walked me from an unspecified point on the nerves. It presents him as a saint. Then, when this image but got a kink at the end, phew, I was a little relieved, would like to know how the still evolving. Whether there is more to it. Would his facade look like to crumble.

But I liked Blues family very much. I think what bothered me was that it was not properly balanced. There were two parties in the book, both were of equal weight "particularly".

Long bothered me also the matter of the potential Love Interests. Long sober smacks hovering with it wiedermal are two interested parties and represents a a stone, which is to make the road to a happy ending bumpy. But when Adams character in the finale took a turn and seemed to put seemingly more behind his calm character, he turned out to be a major storyline and that it is not only the stone between Gansey and Blue. However, I harbor any great expectations for that matter. If Blue but to make do with Adam at the end, I would love Maggie stepfather. I wish finally to read a book where the story is different.

If the book is not grown in pace towards the end and would have made interesting for me, you would continue to talk about the tragic life of the characters rather finally right to act, the book would have flunked me. But the final has made me very curious. Want the series certainly more. I relish to see how things will develop.
