2nd Read | 2018Ohhh it's been TOO LONG since I had the absolute marvellous pleasure of a book narrated by James. I seriously can't even with how much I love him. He is so complicated and damaged, but such a cocky smartass. I also feel like he had a lot of super severe anxiety traits (maybe OCD?) that he's suppressing by being so glib. But like...James. 😭I want the best for my musical genius faerie captivating piper brokenhearted son.

I stared at the stars and wanted more than what I was and more than what the world was and justwanted.why isnt james real? i want him to be my best friend.this book focuses on james while also giving you a rare look into life after a young adult fantasy novel ends less than happily ever after. which is interesting and also really fucking mopey. but, i mean, if the love of my teen-life had to run off and join the fairies so he wouldnt die and i couldnt ever see him again, id be pretty mopey, too.
Wow, really didn't care for this one and I'm disappointed.I was hoping this sequel was a continuation of Deirdre's story but this one is all about James and Nuala, a muse faerie who sucks the life from her sexual partners to live. Yeah, nice, huh?James doesn't like her, isn't interested in what she has to offer until suddenly, for no apparent reason, other than it would seem he wants to make Dee unhappy, he is interested. Even though James has told Nuala he isn't interested and to leave him
That was a pleasant surprised. The first book wasn't that good, so when I randomly saw the second one, I wasn't sure I would read, but I was pleasantly surprised. The thing I liked the most was that Dee wasn't the main character. James is way better. It's not like he is the best main character ever, but he was sort of funny and most importantly he was way more enjoyable than Dee. Dee was so annoying! I liked the idea with the e-mails, but I was really confused in the end. And the story with Luke
A little less than a year ago, I received an e-mail promising me homicidal faeries. I, being the sort too dumb to know when a deal is too good to be true, said yes. In return for the novel, I became a fan of the affable and clever Maggie Stiefvater. And now that I've read BALLAD her insidious claim is stronger than ever. I'm waiting for the paperback of SHIVER, but maybe I shouldn't. I might owe her my collection of shamrock memorabilia.When BALLAD opens, James is still recovering from the
Maggie Stiefvater ranks as one of my best newly discovered authors of 2009 (right up there with Patrick Ness). And it's saying something, for me, that I read two books about faeries -- never my favorite topic, especially after my Melissa Marr experience gone bad -- just to read more of her stuff, even though Lament, and Ballad are not, in some ways, as tightly written as Shiver, my hands-down favorite of hers.But Ballad still contains her lyric prose, and better yet, a truly unique narrative
