The Dream Thieves (YA)


Book #33 Read in 2014
The Dream Thieves by Maggie Stiefvater (YA)

This is the second book in a YA paranormal series.  Teens are trying to find a ley line.  This book focuses more on Ronan and his ability to bring back objects that appear in his dreams.  Mr. Gray is a complex villain in this book; a hitman hired to bring back the object that is really a person.  Blue is still struggling with her destiny of killing her true love with a kiss and is struggling with her feelings for Gansey and her non-feelings for Adam.  Of course the ending is a cliffhanger one; book 3 will be out in October.

The characters in this series are interesting and complex.  This book started off slowly for me (I loved the first book, The Raven Boys) but picked up halfway through and then was a totally engaging read.  Besides the mystery of finding the ley line, there is also a good action plot with Mr. Gray, as well as humor and romance.  All in all, a good read.

  1. I can't even explain how much I love this book and the writing of Maggie Stiefvater. I have just finished reading it for the SECOND time through and I already want to read it again. Read it. You will not be disappointed.
