Noah had his fingers held ten inches apart and he looked through the space between them to the wood below, perplexed. There were no tools in sight. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat is your plan with these things anyway?\u201d Adam asked. <\/p>\n<p>Ronan smiled his lizard smile. \u201cRamp. BMW. The goddamn moon.\u201d This was so like Ronan. His room inside Monmouth was filled with expensive toys, but, like a spoiled child, he ended up playing outside with sticks. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe trajectory you\u2019re building doesn\u2019t suggest the moon,\u201d Adam replied. \u201cIt suggests the end of your suspension.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Gansey is sometimes annoying, but you can&#8217;t help but like him from the start.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The phone on the desk was an old-fashioned black rotary number, completely in keeping with Gansey\u2019s love of the bizarre and barely functional. Knowing him, it was possible he had a landline merely to justify having this particular phone on his desk.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Especially when he&#8217;s honest about himself.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cMy words are unerring tools of destruction, and I\u2019ve come unequipped with the ability to disarm them.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Towards the end of the story. <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>From the passenger seat, Ronan began to swear at Adam. It was a long, involved swear, using every forbidden word possible, often in compound-word form. As Adam stared at his lap, penitent, he mused that there was something musical about Ronan when he swore, a careful and loving precision to the way he fit the words together, a black-painted poetry. It was far less hateful sounding than when he didn\u2019t swear.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Maybe Ronan isn&#8217;t that bad.<\/p>\n<p>Publisher: Scholastic Audio<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rating: 9\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Raven Boys, Audio Edition (2012) Maggie Stiefvater narrated by Will Patton (The Raven Cycle) Blue.
