The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I absolutely loved this story, about a girl and a boy and a couple of horses. [Didn't love one of the characters who was so, so savage. It still makes me ache thinking of those moments.] It was also a relief that this was a novel, and not a series, as we actually got to see the whole story resolve.
The writing was clear and concise yet had the standard Maggie descriptive flourishes. The setting was alive, our senses were tantalized, everything felt so real. It was one of those stories that my mind won’t let go long after the last page has been read and one that I will return to reread soon. Read it, you can’t go wrong.
Happy Readings!
Kate
