Week 10- Smoke Weed Every Day?

Hi again! I forgot to mention something last week. The point of view actually switches between three people, not two. The third is a teacher at the rich kids' school. Hiss name is Barrington Whelk. I know. Blech.

His parents must hate him. It's probably why he's such a sneaky creep. He basically wants to take over the world using the ley lines that Gansey is looking for. He had this whole flashback where he explained how at first he just wanted to find them to be cool and ~adventurous~ as seems to be the norm in the books I read, but then he and his friend did some kind of demonic ritual to find the ley lines and his friend died? And also it drove him insane basically. Yay for demons.

So, Gansey went to Blue's psychic family and they met and Blue actually knows it's him. Blue, Gansey, and Gansey's friends Ronan, Adam and Noah, are on an… say it with me now… ~ADVENTURE!~ They're looking for the ley lines, which Blue has seen because that's where she saw Gansey's spirit, so she leads them to it. And then… some super weird stuff happened. Gansey made some fish show up with his mind, Adam saw something he won't talk about, Blue saw a vision of her about to kiss Gansey, and Gansey saw Glendower, the king dude he wants to wake up. It was pretty surreal. Also, time stopped. I'm guessing all of this is going to lead up to something later, but for right now it just seems like they all got high together or something.

One thing that's bothering me is the whole “Gansey is either my true love or I killed him or both” thing. Or, well, it's not that concept that bothers me. It's that Gansey is the one Blue saw when, right now, she is hard core into Adam. I would yell at them to kiss, but a) They're not real and b) Blue might kill the precious marshmallow. So if Blue is into Adam, how can Gansey be her true love? None of it makes sense. There'll be some kind of plot twist, obviously, but what kind of plot twist is hard for me to picture without it being something boring and unsatisfying. But this is only the first book in the series, so maybe it goes deeper than I think. I would love it if I could move on to other things I want to read after this book, but if the story isn't resolved at the end, I can tell I'm going to get sucked into a never ending spiral of psychics and possible ley line weed. We'll just have to see. I'm guessing I'll finish the book by the end of Thanksgiving Break. If not, I'll catch you up on all the deets. Have a great break!
