hello:) i never did a buddy read before so i actually do not have any idea how this is working :D still i just finished the first book a few days ago so i guess i'm going to be in!

[[deleted user]]

Hi Jolie! Its pretty fun. What I usually do is put what chapter I read up to and add a spoiler tag and put in my thoughts about what I read. Sometimes how I feel about certain characters or where I think the plot will go.


I actually just started DREAM THIEVES

Prologue (view spoiler)[ okay so Ronans dream stealing thing is really cool?? Is he going to take Ganseys car at some point then? (hide spoiler)]

[jolie]

Okay thanks :)! I also started Dream Thieve!

[jolie]

chaper 11
(view spoiler)[ whaaat so ronan wrote something on a stone in his dreams and it's there in rl??? thats creepy but also cool? i guess (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

Chapter 12 (view spoiler)[ kind of like that the focus is on Ronan and Adam. But I want more Glendower adventures (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

Ch 18 (view spoiler)[ Wow that was an intense scene. And it wasnt even the first time something like this has happened?? the nightmare creature sounds terrifying and one actually escaped too?? (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

ch 22 (view spoiler)[ I wouldn't have guessed everything in Ronans childhood was a dream?? (hide spoiler)]

[jolie]

ch 28
(view spoiler)[ i love maura but seriously WHY DOESNT ANYONE CARE THAT MR GREY IS A CONTRACT KILLER!? its obvious that they like eachother but still not even at home maura really sees this as a negativ point!!? (hide spoiler)]

[jolie]

ch 31
(view spoiler)[ and omggggggg finally both gansey and blue admitted that they love eachother (well gansey in some way) and that kiss with noah idk i think this was the cutest thing ever (hide spoiler)]

[jolie]

ch 44
(view spoiler)[Oh my god i dont think i ever shipped something so bad than ronan and kavinsky help me (and you definetly cant deny that there is something!!!!) they are so in love (even though ronan is soooo insecure (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

Ch 27 (view spoiler)[ who just lights their car on fire and is totally ok with it??
(hide spoiler)]

Ch 35 (view spoiler)[ is Kavinsky telling him to just dream up a new camaro??
(hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

[[deleted user]]

Ch 9
(view spoiler)['of freakin course its greenmantle!! (hide spoiler)]

[jolie]

finished dream thieves
(view spoiler)[i cant find any words that will ever describe how terrible down i felt after kavinsikys dead. but for real what did stiefvater think. i was obsessed with ronan and kavinsky together so yeah i'm really sad!!! was i the only one? (sorry if i'm beeing to dramatic i can't help it (hide spoiler)]

[Carolina]

Hi. I'd like to join this BR for December 6th 2017. :)

But I already read the first one. Is that a problem?

[jolie]

ch 12
(view spoiler)[ this might be really illogical but if gansey wished noah alive (when they find glendower) would that mean gansey would die ? because as gansey once should have died (because of the hornets) noah had to die instead. i doubt it makes any sense but yeah.
(hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

Caroline that is not a problem. Just make sure when the BR starts you let the other readers know you already read the first one.

Blu lily ch 20
(view spoiler)[ UMMM ok i did NOT expect matthew to be a dream??? And the whole ronan taking a dream but it doesnt have a description was so cool but kind of creepy? (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ OMG that ending! I am so happy to see Neeve again? and how piper woke the third sleeper was iconic!! Also is Gwenllian a sleeper or not I am sooo confused! (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

I kind of liked Kavinsky and Ronan together too!

jolie wrote: "ch 12

(view spoiler)[ THAT IS A REALLY GOOD POINT. i wonder if that is how gansey ends up dying??? (hide spoiler)]

I think I am going to wait until the first to start Raven King. Or until you finish Blue lily Jolie!

Ch 15 (view spoiler)[ omg noah! (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

[[deleted user]]

Ch 35 (view spoiler)[
Omg thank god it was mr gray. I was worried about henry (hide spoiler)]

[jolie]

Ch 39
(view spoiler)[ok so that thing with ronan and adam is only getting cuter!!! (hide spoiler)]

ch 51
(view spoiler)[and henry is only getting cuter as well!! he didn't even ask questions but took gansey with him. also i think its adorable that he wishes to be friends with gansey,blue ect so bad (hide spoiler)]

[jolie]

Ch 53
(view spoiler)[also if they find glendower now (!!!!) who would be there to ask for gansey to stay alive!? (hide spoiler)]

[jolie]

ch 54
(view spoiler)[i feel like now would be the right time to freak out bc GANSEY IS WEARING A WET AGLIONBY PULLOVER (hide spoiler)]

[jolie]

finished raven king
(view spoiler)[okay first, im speechless about how wonderful this book was. but then: GLENDOWER WAS DEAD!! and is matthew now dead or not!? and i really wanted more adam and ronan at least in the end:( and i'm wondering if blue still can't kiss gansey. i mean he is still her true love, right? but wow i loved this series so much i'm really sad that its over (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

Ch 47 (view spoiler)[ gansey is going to sacrifice himself i just know it and i am upset (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

Finished Raven king
(view spoiler)[ are you kidding me. Thats freaking it. Thats it. Glendower was dead. The only person who got a wish was freaking piper from the demon. Noah is still dead and gone. I guess its ok that gansey is back but he has weird time travel problems because cabeswater doesnt know how to trade a life for a life. Ugh. So angry. I cant believe thats the ending omggg (hide spoiler)]

[jolie]

(view spoiler)[yes i was actually really confused because of noah because there was that scene in the end where i didn't really get if it meant he is now finally dead or not (hide spoiler)]

[spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ Right when I first read, it sounded like he was gone for good but now that i read it again I am so unsure. I have soooo many questions though! Like is Cabeswater gone too? Does that mean Ronan cant dream stuff up anymore? (hide spoiler)]
