How does one even review classics? I think it hardly matters what a singular person like me thinks and blogs about them. Classics have been scrutinised till their words ran dry, I’m sure. Whether I like it or not probably doesn’t matter to anyone when deciding to read classics.
A Crack In Gansey’s Purity
Rounding up #RavenBoysWeek we have the fabulous Jess from My Reading Dress. She reflected on my favourite character, Gansey. On the surface he seems to have it all but he too isn’t perfect. And really, it’s the imperfections of people that spin stories worth reading.
The Raven Cycle in More Than Words
Even though Georgie and I are both bloggers, we struck up our friendship through Instagram due to our mutual love for photography. Her visual talents extend far beyond mine as she has knack for (digital) design. This is why I’m thrilled to share a couple of montages she made with quotes from The Raven Cycle. For all the words that were dedicated to the raven boys this week, images too can portray their greatness.
Mise-en-scène #17: Eyes
Whenever I look at the cover of Slated by Teri Terry, I start to ponder, how do we see the world? How does the world see us? No two eyes see things the same, which’s why I like this cover.

After all, she is pursuing her postgraduate studies to become an LGBTQ+ youth worker. She also writes LGBTQ+ fiction, of which you can find out more at her author website.
