On St. Mark's Eve the spirits of those who will die in the next year march along Corpse Road. Of course Blue had never been able to see them. Her gift is only to increase the psychic abilities of others. Which is why she was once again by the old church on St. Mark's Eve helping someone else record the names of unfortunate souls she could not see. That is, until she saw him. That night everything changed. There are only two reasons why a non-seer like her would see a spirt on St. Mark's Eve: she's either his true love...or his killer.
I love the characters in this novel from Blue: the sensible one in a house full of psychics to the group of Raven Boys, so called because of their private school's mascot. The four Raven Boys have a special bond and it's this group dynamic that kept me reading more than anything else. The boys clearly care about each other, but they're so different that they seem to be constantly on the verge of breaking apart. I’d give this to anyone looking for a story about friendship, boarding schools, or the supernatural.
