Time is running out for Gansey to find the Welsh King Glendower and save himself from being killed. He has spent months with his friends, Blue, Ronan, Adam and Noah, and finally the gang may have found a lead to where the king is buried. But with a magical forest that may not be on their side, they must be quick in making their choices, as it could be the end for Gansey, and the end of The Raven Boys as they know it.
WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW ONE OF THE BEST FINALES TO ANY BOOK EVER! I have pretty much been on a Raven Cycle kick these past couple of months, and this book left me laughing, crying, sobbing and gasping all the way through. Ms. Stiefvater managed to make an absolutely wonderful conclusion, and this is one series that I will never let die.
The ending was something so unexpected that it kept me flipping pages just to see what happens! I literally broke down into tears when Gansey asked Blue to kiss him, I thought that it would be all over for him. But then he came back and I was like WOAH! I've never been more relieved with a book in my life. The ending gave me so much closure and left me feeling content and happy.
Each character got an equal amount of page time and I was so thrilled with Adam and Ronan finally getting together! It was like FINALLY THE SHIP I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR! It was amazing to see their relationship blossom, and they are by far my favourite relationship of the series.
The one-liners in this book were once again so hilarious and amazing, and I love how this series isn't all drama. It can be relatable, it can be sarcastic, and it can be so hilarious sometimes! Like I said before, you will laugh, you will cry, and you will be happy.
So that's it for all my Raven Cycle reviews! I'm so thankful that I picked this series up, as it has literally changed my life for the better.

DeleteI hear everyone talking about how good the Raven Cycle is - I really have to start ASAP! Glad to hear this was a fitting end for you! :)
ReplyDeleteYou definitely must read it and let me know what you think!!
DeleteGlad you enjoyed it so much :) I've been trying to get a copy of The Raven Boys, but can't afford to buy books atm, and the local library system doesn't have a single copy for me to reserve! Guess I'll have to wait 'til I have an Amazon voucher or something.
ReplyDeleteWell I hope you can get it soon enough! I must know what you think of it!
DeleteI TOTALLY didn't read this, but I did see the WOW WOW WOW WOW, so I take it you're in love with this series all over again? :D I can't waiiiit to read this book, but I'm still in book two *sniffles* Good thing too, or you'd catch me crying over why such an awesome series ended so soon :D
ReplyDeleteHaha I can't wait to be able to talk about the entire series with you!! I hope you only love it more Ruzaika!

ReplyDeleteI LOVED The Raven King! I was so afraid of it, because of a lot of series conclusions have disappointed me lately, but this one... this one definitely lived up to my expectations. One thing I wish for is the Noah line being handled with more care - I felt like they were friends with Noah one day, and then not. Also, what happened to the Gray Man? I want to see him with Maura!!
Amazing review!
PS: Have you seen that Maggie Stiefvater outlined a Ronan centered trilogy?? I hope it'll actually happen, bc I NEED more Ronan and Adam in my life.
Yeah I wasn't happy with how Noah was let off too! He seemed to just disappear one day and it really annoyed me. I can't wait for the Ronan trilogy you have NO IDEA! I just hope that Adam and him won't break up or anything, I don't want her butchering their relationship.
