He doesn’t react, because he doesn’t see it out of the realm of possibility, and even if he wasn’t gay, he wouldn’t be ashamed of having those feelings. The author doesn’t make Adam’s bisexuality a big deal, and there’s a definite hint to Ronan’s homosexuality in the second book where he doesn’t react at all to Kavinsky’s cruel mockery that he’s having a relationship with Gansey. He’d initially liked Blue and was pretty damn upset when he found out her and Gansey had been hiding their relationship from him, and the move onto Ronan was natural without being over the top. I also loved that Adam was totally okay with it. Stiefvater is a good enough author that she’d never offer that as an excuse. made him like that in order to imply he was an “angry gay,” but Ronan has so many more valid reasons to be angry than that, and I think Ms. Now I know some people might think Maggie S.
The only thing Gansey said to Adam was “Don’t hurt him.” He didn’t care that they were together he only cared about Ronan’s well-being because he understood that Ronan’s acerbic attitude was a veneer. Can I tell you how fucking happy I am that Maggie Stiefvater included a gay relationship and IT WASN’T A BIG DEAL? Like no one in Gansey’s court gave a shit about it.
It doesn’t give away the main plot, but it does give away one of the major relationships. If you’ve read the final book or are curious, I’ll talk about it in the spoiler markers below. So unexpected I had to leave a potential genre out of my list as just the mention of such would be too much of a clue, and it is so uncontrived, perfect, and pure that giving it away would be a sin. Stiefvater not only manages to introduce another member this late in the game, though he was mentioned/seen briefly before so not entirely novel, but she also gave us more unexpected relationships. The reason for Noah’s existence and draw to Gansey’s court is made abundantly clear, and more than one relationship therein is resolved. The finale of Maggie Stiefvater’s illustrious YA series (which I didn’t even realize was YA until I realized it was YA) has both the love and loss that’s expected of the genre without the cliche. She doesn’t believe in true love and never thought this would be a problem, but as her life becomes caught up in the strange and sinister world of the Raven Boys, she’s not so sure anymore. The fourth and final installment in the spellbinding series from the irrepressible, #1 New York Times bestselling author Maggie Stiefvater.Īll her life, Blue has been warned that she will cause her true love’s death.
