The Girl and the Raven (The Girl and the Raven series) by Pauline Gruber – Review by Rosanna Ingram

The Girl and The Raven by Pauline Gruber
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When Lucy’s mother dies suddenly, her life is changed in more ways than she ever could have expected. She moves to Chicago to live with her uncles…but she notices weird things are happening around her. Why did a stranger feel like he electrocuted her at the airport? Where is her late grandmother’s bird? And how is she going to fit in at her new school? Oh….and how does she deal with the secrets being revealed by those around her? (That’s probably the most important!)

Lucy is making friends, falling for a boy, and feeling confused about another…all while she is also trying to deal with the fact that someone is after her and she can’t even trust her own father. As Lucy’s world begins to open up as secrets are told, she must fight to keep herself safe while not losing herself in the process.

This book is filled with a lot going on…and I was never sure who to really trust. In fact, I’m still not really sure. I enjoyed watching Lucy learn about herself and take ahold of it and not shy away from it. She became stronger and is finding her way in this new crazy world. Can’t wait to see what future books have in store for her!
