I was surprised that this book was in the POV of Kevin. I'd expected it to be from Claire but I actually liked the book a lot this way. Kevin and Claire are cuties and they made me want to learn cooking even more. I love Buddy too! I think this was a really cute read and I wish it had been longer but the ending works for me too.
Kevin's mother and Claire's parents are also golden.
Also, Claire being a plus-sized girl means so much to me. I've been struggling with weight and insecurities for a long time but while reading this (for a boy's POV) Claire never was seen as less than beautiful through Kevin's eyes. It's because of his friends and the title that we know Claire is 'fat'. In this society it can be really hard to be not as thin as the models on the covers of magazines. But books like this give me hope and more self-confidence. Funny how that works.

4.5 stars. I really enjoyed this book. The dual narration was utilized really good. I liked how the foreshadowing turned out and I'm excited to read more of Rossi's work.
i've a feeling that nothing and so much at the same time happened in this book. but i love these characters so so much. and what happened didn't feel strange or rushed or unnatural. I think it's all build up for The Raven King! and I want to read it although we all know what is going to happen.
3.5 out of 5 stars.
I liked this one more than Queen Song. Maybe because I already knew Farley. It is a nice short story. It gave me more inside on the Scarlet Guard, Farley's past and also the war between the Lakelands and Norta. I discovered some really interesting things and I'm soo excited for Glass Sword!

At least 4,5 stars, might become 5 stars in the future.
When I started this book I didn't really know what to expect. I had heard good things about The Raven Cycle but there isn't a lot of hype around it.
I really enjoyed the story. I've never read anything like it. Maybe that's why I like it so much. It's fresh and new.
I love the cast of characters that we met throughout the book. They're all different. We've a lot of strong female and male characters. All with different backgrounds and different things that they want.
I'm looking forward to the second book in this series!
