THE RAVEN BOYS decide what we do for three days (tattoos, kissing, fortune telling & more)

During my first week in San Francisco, Chanelle and I buddy read The Dream Thieves and let the events of the book influence what we did, saw, and ate for the next few days. This idea was inspired by booksandlala. (Not sponsored) If you’re interested in staying at an amazing airbnb like I did, you can get up to $55 off with my link: www.airbnb.com/c/cindyp4057
I hope you enjoyed seeing the sights around the city with us! I'm proud of myself for (FINALLY) editing a video to be under 15 minutes, which is pretty incredible considering this was 3+ days of footage. I'll talk more comprehensively about my thoughts on Dream Thieves in a monthly wrap-up. I hope everyone got some nice rest & relaxation over the holidays so that we can approach 2020 as better selves. I'm personally super excited for all the books I'm gonna be reading in the new year. I also really want to rewrite the first draft of a novel I wrote a few years ago, so that's one of my new years resolutions. Do you have any resolutions for 2020? Let me know. xx

I can remember most of the characters including the Professor and his therapy dog but poor Noah seems to just exist for the sole purpose of being forgotten. After finishing the Raven Cycle series you should check out her new book Call Down the Hawk, its the first book to a new trilogy and one of the three main characters is Ronan Lynch. I haven't read to far into it yet so I'm not sure how much it spoils, at most it probably spoils a few plot points from the Raven Cycle books. So far it seems pretty interesting.

@@withcindy - It's the average Boy's Love manga fare. Angst and men being idiots rather than using their big boy words to communicate. Being a single volume, it doesn't spend too much time on character development and motivations, which is a shame. The art style hits my niche though, so I enjoyed it. Read before committing to buying would be my recommendation. I'd also be willing to ship my copy to someone who wants it.
