Everything else is practically perfect.At the end of The Dream Thieves, Maura went missing. This review will contain spoilers for the first two in the series, so be forewarned.The worst thing about Blue Lily, Lily Blue? The title, certainly. The first book is The Raven Boys and the second is The Dream Thieves. This series has many twists and turns, and it’s imperative that they’re read in order. I’ve been hesitating to write a review since because I sincerely don’t know how to capture all the things I love about this book and series.First of all, Blue Lily, Lily Blue is the third book in Maggie Stiefvater’s Raven Cycle. Maybe The Raven King will convince me to rate it better, but who knows.Confession – I finished this in one sitting on the day it came out. I can’t mention it enough, but the story moved forward and I’m so excited about this! I can’t wait to read The Raven King, because I’m psyched! Conclusionīlue Lily, Lily Blue gets 4.5 out of 5 stars because it was REALLY great but the whole series is still a tiny little bit too shallow for me to give it full 5 stars. I’m starting to repeat myself, but woah, just so much happened that makes me happy (and sad?!). There are new characters (funny ones!!), new locations, more in-depth moments.

Everything seemed far more interesting this time around. Which for me, is character development and less boring than having Gansey from books 1 and 2.Īlso, finally, there is some attention to Blue’s character and her power. He is still the obvious leader of the group, but something raw starts to show through. Gansey showed some vulnerability as well and doesn’t seem to be this perfect, polished guy anymore. Like, finally some progress of being a step closer to finding Glendower! Or that Adam has enough of being his old self and Ronan of doing something good with his dream power. It slowly builds towards the big showdown, the final revelation of what we expected to happen since book 1. By now, we know the characters and how they used to be, but this book changed a lot and went deeper with everything. Oh boy, what a journey this book has been! I wish that the previous book would have been that great and now I really hope that The Raven King won’t disappoint me, but here we go.īlue Lily, Lily Blue was more emotional than all the other books. Ha, when I finished The Dream Thieves I never expected that Blue Lily, Lily Blue would suck me into the plot so much. Learning more about each individual powers makes the game not only way more dangerous, it also pulls in opponents they’d rather not have. In search for the Welsh king Owen Glendower, the group of Gansey, Ronan, Adam and Blue takes it a step further and start searching various caves around Cabeswater. I’ve already reviewed the first two books, The Raven Boys and The Dream Thieves.

Genre: Urban Fantasy, Young Adult, Fictionīlue Lily, Lily Blue is the third book in the Raven Cycle series.
