The Girl and the Raven by Pauline Gruber – Review by Erin Wolf

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

I give The Girl and the Raven: a YA Paranormal Romance by Pauline Gruber, 4 stars.

This was a really interesting YA Paranormal Romance. It starts out pretty tragic for Lucy, but then she is given another chance to basically start all over. In this book, we really learn who she was and who she wants to be. She is such a strong person, especially for her age and while she struggles, she does what she has to for those she loves. We are introduced to so many other characters besides her that really help to make this book so much better.

Then there is the story itself. I will admit, this book seems to have some of the things that at one time we saw everywhere in this genre. To be honest, that made me question by choice of books. But I quickly realized that there was so much more to this book than that, and those things I worried about paled in comparison to the suspense and action in the story. Lucy is trying to come to terms with what she really is, trying to fit in at school, trying have a steady relationship, and all the while battling against an evil out there. There are plenty of surprises along the way too — things aren’t always what they seem.

I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys supernatural romance with plenty of action and strong main characters.
