Wow! That was intense! But Blue and Adam finally let everything out. I can't stop but think that Adam is being am ass... again. I'm sorry for everyone who loves him, but he's really annoying.

Two things:

1) Blue and Gansey at the toga party. So funny!



2) Adam and Ronan together and the fact that Ronan admitted to himself that he likes Adam and even dreams about both of them together. Super cute!

I know I'm coming here a lot to talk about that book, but so many things are happening! Blue and Gansey again at the toga party was so damn cute!

“I like you an awful lot, Blue Sargent.”

First: Did Ronan dream Cabeswater? OMG!

"Adam stood in Ronan's dreams"



And Noah attacking Blue... So sad and terrifying! And after that, the conversation between everybody. Blue is hurt, but she'll be ok. And they finally saying to everyone that they are together... The beautiful thing about this scene was that there was a certain balance into it, like everything was finally clicking into place again. Everything was weird since Adam has made the pact with Cabeswater at the end of the first book. Things began to feel strange between all of them after that. Now things are going back to normal. And it was about time, because shit is about to hit the fan.

"No more playing around. There was only time for truth"

OMG!!! I don't know what to think. Henry's story was really sad. His mother was terrible. And he wants to not be afraid anymore, but put an insect into Gansey' s hand... Oh my God, I'm sooooo nervous!

Three things that I want to talk about:

1st) The interaction between Henry and Blue in front of her school was hilarious! And then, after that, Gansey showing up made everything even more funny! I know something more serious will happen after that, but that was a lot of fun!



2nd) Ronan and Adam finally kissed! And it was soooooo beautiful!!!



"Ronan thought that he had caught magic without meaning to"

"Ronan would start wars and burn cities for that true smile. Elastic and amiable"

3rd) Finally, Declan and Ronan finally getting along! So beautiful! And the party to help Matthew accept that he would have to leave... Ronan and Declan talking in the roof and being friends. Also really cute!

Dream Thieves, finished.
(view spoiler)[OMGosh! This series. It has just totally brought me to my knees! I LOVE these boys! I don't even know what to say! Ronan likes guys! WHAT! That is amazing!

Blue and Gansey when he picked her up after her telling Adam is won't ever be him! How adorable they were. Like just GIVE IN ALREADY! (hide spoiler)]

I absolutely love this series! I am so saddened to say I have to take a break from the series to get in a reread of the Falling Kingdoms series for the release of book 6 in February. But I will speed read through that series to get back to my boys!

Happy reading! :D

This chapter was magical.! Everyone together...

And Gansey and Adam taking about love...

I'm really loving this book!

"What a strange constellation they all were"

"The wound was healing against all odds. The victim would make it after all"

"She makes me quiet"

"How do I know I love her? Because I can sleep after I talk to her"

"Don't break him, Adam"

"I think that's it's about being honest with yourself. That's all you can do."

100% (finished the book)

(view spoiler)[

That book was amazing! For me this one and the first one are the best from the whole series! And I was afraid, because in a lot of reviews people said that they were disapointed with this last book... For me it was simply perfect! It closed like a full circle for me.

I think that maybe people were disapointed with all the Glendower thing. That he was already dead and not dreaming. I wasn't sad about that at all. This story wasn't about the ending, it was about the whole journey. And it was a wonderful journey!

In all the books Maggie Stiefvater was never traditional in her writing and in the way she told this story, and at the end it wouldn't be different. She wouldn't be traditional. The ending soundend right and simply perfect, I'll miss all these characters, for sure.

"Willing death to pay for unwilling death"

"I'm ready, Blue. Kiss me."

"Be magicians"

"Make way for the raven king"

"Depending on how you start this story, it was a story about..."













Malory and Dog



Declan and Matthew Lynch



"You didn't eat your greens, did you?"



Mr. Gray and Maura



Persephone, Maura and Calla

(view spoiler)[ overall this way yet another amazing. Installment in the series and I can’t wait to see how it closes. I found two really good quotes in this installment that I may get tattooed on me at some point in time. I’m so glad to see that Neeve and Maura are both alive and okay. Also, I’m glad that the Gray Man isn’t actually an antagonist during the majority of this installment like he is the others. (hide spoiler)]
