"I wish you could be kissed, Jane,' he said. 'Because I would beg just one off you. Under all this.' He flailed an arm toward the stars."

 "Blue," he warned, but his voice was chaotic. This close, his throat was scented with mint and wool sweater and vinyl car seat, and Gansey, just Gansey. 
 She said, "I just want to pretend. I want to pretend that I could."

 "I know when I'm awake and when I'm asleep," Ronan Lynch said. 
 Adam Parrish, curled over himself in a pair of battered, greasy coveralls, asked, "Do you?" 
 "Maybe I dreamt you," he said. 
 "Thanks for the straight teeth, then," Adam replied." 
 "Adam finally sat down on one of the pews. Laying his cheek against the smooth back of it, he looked at Ronan. Strangely enough, Ronan belonged here, too, just as he had at the Barns. This noisy, lush religion had created him just as much as his father's world of dreams; it seemed impossible for all of Ronan to exist in one person. Adam was beginning to realize that he hadn't known Ronan at all. Or rather, he had known part of him and assumed it was all of him. 
 The scent of Cabeswater, all trees after rain, drifted past Adam, and he realized that while he'd been looking at Ronan, Ronan had been looking at him." 
 There was so much character development and well... most importantly, Pynch development. 
 The all time high of Ronan and Adam scenes, were the highlights of this novel for me. 
 Blue and Gansey are a great ship as well, but can anyone compete with Pynch? 
 Other than all these swoon worthy ship moments, I did have some problems with this novel. 
 Though the pacing was much better, it felt very dragged. I honestly don't understand why it's four books instead of three. Three seems like the max for this plot. 
 Why do I say that? Because the pace was much too slow in the first two and there weren't as many impacting moments to the story line overall. It could of simply been fit into a trilogy. 
 Can I also add that the constant new "villains" almost feel comic book-esque. 
 Maybe I was the only one who thought so... 
 On the bright side... I love Adam more than I did before. 
 At this point I think I love them all equally, maybe I love Adam and Ronan more than I love Gansey now... 
 It's just, I've learned Adam is a Slytherin, so I can't help but feel obligated to adore him. Maybe I also feel that I understand him more here? At first he felt a little off, but now, he's a very precious snake. 
 Blue was okay, I don't mind her much, she just can't compare to the boys.
