Synopsis: 

There is danger in dreaming. But there is even more danger in waking up.

Blue Sargent has found things. For the first time in her life, she has friends she can trust, a group to which she can belong. The Raven Boys have taken her in as one of their own. Their problems have become hers, and her problems have become theirs.

The trick with found things though, is how easily they can be lost.

Friends can betray.
Mothers can disappear.
Visions can mislead.
Certainties can unravel. 


------------------------------------------------------------

Why?: I've enjoyed the first two books in the quartet. The paranormal elements are fun and the characters are well written, gaining depth each book. 


Expectations: I'm excited to see the story progress. Each novel feels like just a part of the bigger picture and I'm anxious to see it all. There are already a lot of characters in this series so I hope I don't get too confused. One of the cool things about this series is the abilities of the clairvoyants and the things we know of the future that have let to happen.  


Judging a book by its cover: This cover is creepy and fits along nicely next to the first two books in the series. I like how such dark and unnerving art has a pure white background.
