When Clare moves with her mother from London to Ravensmere, an historic English estate, she can't shake the feeling that the residents already know her, especially Mark, a maddeningly attractive biker.

But when Clare discovers that Ravensmere is in grave danger, will she risk her future-and Mark's-to save it?

I'm trying to remember now where I first ran across a reference to this book. It may have been on Meg Cabot's blog a few years ago, come to think of it. She's always dropping good recommendations here and there and I often pick up on them. This one I ran down at my local library, where they fortunately had this gorgeous cover. And not the hideously awkward hardback cover. I adore this cover. It's really perfect for the book itself, evoking all the adjectives that spring to my mind when I think

Ah, YA. Subtlety is not your strong point. You make points using train wrecks, and not being satisfied with beating the dead horse, you mangle and dessicate the body. Let me not even get started on certain YA tropes that makes me want to throttle things, because parents aren't *THAT* oblivious. I'm going to have to have a moratorium on reading the genre for a bit; I've reached my limit.

I read this a few years ago and recently reread it. I enjoyed it then; I enjoyed it now. It's a good, quick novel set in present day England. The book has a lot of good mythology in it (which I loved). One thing I didn't like about the book is that after about the middle of the story (when the two main characters have sex), the story seems to change. The tension in their relationship, that was building up in the first half of the book, (obviously) drops off. The characters then think: "Oh,

I fell in love with this book when I was in middle school and checked it out of the library every chance I got. Now, having graduated from college, I have read through three of my own copies. It is one of my favorites for reasons I still don't know. It is not particularly literary, but as a girl's story, a coming of age fantasy, it manages to walk a line between showing a strong, independent teenage girl growing into herself as an individual, and a young woman living out an epic, magical love

This has been a favorite of mine for years. Probably since I first discovered it while in college. I love mythology and this book is rich in it. I also love the way that there is a slight mystery (Clare and Mark's discovery of what exactly Ravensmere is guarding), rich characters, tragedy, and romance all tied together. Both Mark and Clare have to come to the realization that they must accept their destinies or die. I read this for fun and for the cover Green in Book cover Bingo.Update 3/22/18.

I love this book! I've read it twice...and then I lost it. My plans of buying another copy have been hindered by my habit of buying books I haven't read yet. Update: They are now also hindered by the book being out of print.

Clare is about to embark on her university studies, prodded into business by her boyfriend rather than into medicine or history which are her greater interests. She is surprised by her mother's plan to return to her home village to be a private nurse. While her mother does not want her to go, Clare convinces her to let her come as well. When she arrives she is astonished that everyone knows not only her mother, but also knows about her and are jubilant in her return. There is mention of
