Opal

”With intellectual curiosity, she watched ribs and hips and arms and legs and spines. She had no lust, because Ronan hadn’t dreamt any for her, but she also had no shame, because Ronan hadn’t dreamt any of that for her, either.”    I LOVED THIS SO MUCH!!!   Seriously, I didn’t even realize that I needed this so badly, but to be back in this world!? Ahh, it was so amazing and more than just wholesome for my heart. =))  Opal is such an honest character and I absolutely adored her innocence and the way she perceives the world. To see Adam and Ronan through her eyes was such a funny and intriguing experience. I mean most of the time she has no idea what she’s witnessing but her feelings and her love for Ronan and Adam were so tangible that it hurt.    ”Adam had taken the cassette from Ronan’s hand, working Ronan’s fingers loose and putting his own fingers between them. For a moment Opal, hidden, had thought they were going to kiss. But instead, Ronan pressed his face against Adam’s neck and Adam quietly put his head on top of Ronan’s head and they did not move for a long time.”   My two favourite boys had a lot to deal with in this short story and to say it was intense would be putting it more than just lightly. But to see them interact, to see their pain and the aftermath of what happened at the end of “The Raven King” was really sad, bittersweet, beautiful and quite a sight to behold. I loved that they were there for each other and that they always tried to work things out. Still, to read that Ronan cried broke my heart, what got me the most was this scene though:   ”I didn’t think I’d be able to, now that I’m not tied to the line anymore.” “I was never tied to it,” one of the ladies had replied, “and I’ve always felt it.” “But you’re a psychic.” “Exactly.” Adam had laid out his words as carefully as they’d put down their cards on the table. “Am I?” “Of course,” one of the other ladies had said. “Did you think you’d lost everything when Cabeswater died?” “Yes,” Adam had whispered, and Opal had felt a rush of love for him. She loved him the best when he was very sad or very serious or very happy.   Bless Adam and his soft, deliberate way to deal with things. GAH! I loved him even more after reading that scene and this is almost impossible because I love him so much already!   This was balm for my soul and the best comfort read I could have wished for! XD Thank you, Maggie!  ______________________________  Okay, it's official, I need a comfort read.  And since I'm kinda Ronan Lynch's twin nothing is more comforting than Adam Parrish!  I love my boy so much and I really, really need him right now. XD So I'll crash on my sofa and will cuddle with Adam. *lol*  See you later, guys! ;-P _____________________________  What?  WHAT?     WHAAAAATTTTTT??!!!  Ohhhh it has a cover now too!!! I. AM. IN. LOVE.! XD
