The Dream Thieves didn't really feel as complicated as The Raven Boys but it was still full of mystery and adventure. The latter definitely won out.īut Maggie's writing also brilliantly sets a mood that is atmospheric and interesting. And while reading The Dream Thieves I was struck with my conflicting desires to fall into the book head first, and my desire to make it last. Her writing is the kind where you feel the power of the words. This is not a fast-paced book, it causes you to slow down and take in every word. It sounds like a bad thing but really it's not. I wanted to just dive right back into this world and devour the book whole but Maggie's writing doesn't allow a person to do that. So after a few weeks I was excited to continue with the story of Blue and the Raven Boys. But The Raven Boys was full of mystery, brilliant characters, and an interesting plot. I mean, I know everyone raves about it but I try to be cautiously skeptical and optimistic at the same time.

I was blown away by how much I enjoyed reading The Raven Boys.
