Wow. Blue Lily, Lily Blue is several steps up from the boringness that was The Dream Thieves! I was so nervous going into this one, but I loved it! This series went back to what I loved about it: the mysterious, magical hunt for Glendower! There’s still plenty of character development goodness, but the plot is once again moving forward, full-throttle! School has started back up for Blue and her Raven Boys, but that doesn’t mean they’re giving up on their quest. Not only are they still trying to wake the lost king, but they need to find Blue’s mother. There’s also the matter of Gansey’s imminent demise weighing on Blue’s mind. On top of that, there’s someone new in town with nefarious plans.

Blue Lily, Lily Blue was crazy, in a great way. There are so many new discoveries and a lot of tension! And kissing! And death! And creepy 600 year old women who talk in song! I don’t even know where to start, since so much happens, but at the same time I don’t want to spoil anything! I suppose I can start with Ronan, since he’s my favorite. There wasn’t nearly enough of him, but what there was, I loved! He had some quiet, sweet moments that really showed how he cares about his fellow Raven Boys. Then there’s a quite disturbing scene of him using his ability to help Adam with this insane plan that he has. Kind of nightmare inducing. Literally (at least for Ronan). I need more Ronan!

Blue and Gansey. What can I say about these two? They’re killing me! They have a lot of scenes together in Blue Lily, Lily Blue and each one was more heartbreaking than the last! I want to smush their lips together because AAHHH! But then I want to keep them apart because of that whole kissing curse thing. And I want Blue to TELL HIM! But then I don’t, because I don’t want a sad Gansey. But then again, at least he’d be prepared, and they can get on with the kissing. But…no! This one scene in his car nearly killed me! This romance is so sad and wonderful, but I don’t know! How will it end?! Or really, how will it ever start?!

Adam and Noah were around, too, and did interesting stuff, but nothing I really feel like mentioning, because I’d rather talk about these new characters: Piper and Gwenllian. We’re introduced to Greenmantle, the mastermind behind Ronan’s father’s murder, but I didn’t really care. At least, not until his wife Piper freaking loses her mind. That woman is disturbed and I couldn’t get enough! Then the epilogue! Nooo! What are you doing, woman!!! Then Blue and the boys find Gwenllian and she certainly makes their lives much more interesting. And by interesting I mean hectic. I adored her, even if she’s totally off her rocker.

So, I pretty much loved Blue Lily, Lily Blue and nearly chucked my Kindle across the room when I got the low battery warning at 96%! I mean, come on! Stuff was happening! There was danger! I wasn’t sure who was going to survive that, since I can’t be sure that anyone is safe! What’s behind that door?! Will Blue and Gansey ever kiss?! Will Adam spill secrets?! What is happening to Noah?! RONAN! Where is the next book?!

Blue Lily Lily Blue Maggie Stiefvater Books Reviews


Once upon a time it began with

"There are only two reasons a non-seer would she a spirit on St Mark's Eve....
Either you're his true love....or you killed him."

And then Blue’s life changed forever because she will either kill Gansey or he will be her one true love or both.

The thing I really LOVE about this series is the ‘Otherness’ of it. Strange things happen all the time, every important character in the series has something different, unique and intriguing about them. I shift from loving Gansey the most, to Blue, then to Noah, from Piper to the Gray Man and then another character just steals the show *cough* Persephone *cough*. I’m stuck in a section of a tangled spider web, trying to seeing where all the strands meet and wondering where the spider is that wants to devour me. Because let’s face it if Gansey dies and Blue kills him my insides will feel like spider mush.

The friendship between Gansey, Blue, Adam and Ronan is something I adore in this book. I love how they all look out for one another and help each other. Sure they bicker and argue at times but really the dynamic between the four of them is awesome. They have all helped each other become more than they were before.

--- "But what she didn’t realize about Blue and her boys was that they were all in love with one another. She was no less obsessed with them than they were with her, or one another, analyzing every conversation and gesture, drawing out every joke into a longer and longer running gag, spending each moment either with one another or thinking about when next they would be with one another."

The quest is still to find Glendower, more important now than ever since Blue’s mother is underground with him somewhere. Time is running out, Gansey could die at any time and the people who know are starting to think the only way to save him would be to wake the Welsh king and get the favor.

This book also plays on one of my guilty pleasures of the forbidden love. I ship Gansey and Blue so much and there is just enough romance between them in this to keep me on the edge with them. I want them to kiss so badly and at the same time I don’t. It is so delicious I could eat it with a spoon.

--- She had thought it was such a simple thing to avoid kissing someone when she’d been with Adam. Her body had never known what to do. Now it knew. Her mouth didn’t care that it was cursed. She turned to Gansey.
Blue,” he warned, but his voice was chaotic.
This close, his throat was scented with mint and wool sweater and vinyl car seat, and Gansey, just Gansey. She said, “I just want to pretend. I want to pretend that I could.”

But it isn’t just the romance it is the friendships and the journey to find the King. The boys keep becoming more than they were before and I totally love the language Maggie Steifvater uses when she describe everything/everyone in this book.

--- There was something unfamiliar about him when he arrived in the Pig. Something ferocious about his eyes, some sort of bite in his faint smile. Something altogether hectic and unsettled. She stood on the ledge of his smile and looked over the edge. This wasn’t the Gansey she’d seen in the kitchen earlier; this was the Gansey she secretly called at night.

---- …it seemed impossible for all of Ronan to exist in one person. Adam was beginning to realize that he hadn’t known Ronan at all. Or rather, he had known part of him and assumed it was all of him

--- He had been wrong to come here alone. Why did he care if Gansey and Ronan saw this? They already knew. They knew everything about him. What a lie unknowable was. The only person who didn’t know Adam was himself

--- Blue’s sensible, pleasant expression was at odds with the fire that burned furiously inside. School was imminent, love was in the air, and Blue’s mother had vanished on some mysterious personal quest more than a month before, leaving behind her newly acquired assassin beau. Blue was a hurricane lurking just offshore.

The other thing I love are the women of 300 Fox way. I really want to be a fly on the wall in that house. It seems like it would be the most interesting place in the world to be at times. Living with those women would be insane, but I really love the feel of the house and how the women inside of it seem to be just on the edge of everything. The way they cryptically speak in riddles or half explanations is really one of my favorite parts of this entire series.

“Do you remember how I said that there were three sleepers, and Maura’s job was to not wake one of them, and your job was to wake one of the others? Remember how I didn’t say anything about the other one? I did not mean bring her to my kitchen.”

I don’t want to give too much away because I really love the way that Maggie Steifvater dishes out little clues along the way as to the bigger picture and even when some questions are answered others rise up. Every character in the series serves a purpose and belongs there. When she adds a new character you know that they are not there just for padding, they will have a purpose. And the new characters added in this installment shine just as brightly as The Gray Man did in The Dream Thieves. Piper and Gwenllian are the most notable additions, although there are a few more.

Gwenllian is a peculiar and fun addition. Her interactions with the women of 300 Fox way and the Gray man sometimes steal the page as you try to decipher her craziness

“Hello, handsome sword! Have you killed anyone today?”
“One sword knows another,” he told her mildly, placing his car keys in his pocket. “Have you killed anyone?”
She was so delighted that she turned off the vacuum cleaner so that her insane smile could be the loudest thing in the hall.

Gwelliian also seems to know something of magic and mirrors. She will definitely have a part to play in the next book as well and might have a few tricks up her sleeve to teach Blue along the way.

Piper might be crazy in a different way. A more dangerous kind of cray-cray and it seems like she will probably play a much bigger role in the next book. Piper is the wife of Greenmantle, the man who was pulling Mr. Gray’s strings in the last book. She is a very perplexing character and a full bundle of trouble.

--- He was so impressed with her ingenuity. He should not have been, really, because Piper was a very ingenious creature. It was just that she didn’t normally use her powers for good, and when she did, they usually weren’t pointed at him.

This is what I can say about this book. I loved every rollercoaster fun-filled moment of the ride. I am so happy that there was more time in spent in Cabeswater because that creepy forest that belongs on the Island in LOST is amazing. I laughed, I teared up, I pondered, I got lost in the language and metaphors, I highlighted 103 passages and read them over a few times. I’m even more in love with all of the characters in this world now than I was before and I am totally looking forward to listening to the audiobook when it comes out on Nov 1 and taking the journey all over again.

……AND THAT ENDING. She has done it again MS has left us hanging in such a weird place at the end that the next book can’t come out soon enough. I have no idea how she is going to wrap it up but I’m putting all my hope into MS that it is just as fantastic as all the books in this series have been.
