Raven Boys / Maggie Stiefvater / 408 pages

What is not to like in this teen supernatural novel?  It's got all the elements, eccentric characters, ghost, evil, psychics, ley lines, talking trees, child abuse, rich kids & poor kids, murder etc. etc. etc. What teenage girl wouldn't have trouble grappling with the idea that if she kisses her true love, she kills him?  What teenage boy who survives an attack by hornets because someone else dies wouldn't spend his life chasing down a sleeping Welsh king who can grant a wish.   What is the secret that Ronan knows about his murdered father and what is the story of the baby Raven, Chainsaw?  Ahhh..dear readers, you must wait until the next book is published...The Dream Thieves.
