All the Crooked Saints

“It could take forever to learn yourself.”

“All the Crooked Saints” was the Miracle I was wishing the Sorias to perform on me.

When the magic and complexity of Maggie's characters meet a small town in the Colorado region and the magic realism of Gabriel García Márquez, there is no way anything bad could happen.

I had already been in love with Maggie's writing since the Raven Boys saga, but her storytelling definitely found another level as she described the wilderness surrounding Bicho Raro and the miracles surrounded by owls that haunted and enchanted the Sorias.

“All the Crooked Saints” is a deep story, with a taste of magic, and a wonderful lesson in self-knowledge, music and miracles. There's no way not to fall in love with Maggie's dual characters, just as there's no way not to feel represented by at least one of the Sorias.

I highly recommend it for all lovers of magic, as well as for all those who find themselves lost and desolate under a gray cloud that just rains.
