SEASON 8 EPISODE 1: SECRECY

We’re going back to Henrietta! We’re so ready to get right into the heart of The Dream Thieves by Maggie Stiefvater for season 8. This is the second book in The Raven Cycle - we read the first, The Raven Boys, for season 5. We’re picking up the same overarching theme of connection. This week, we read the prologue to chapter 6 through the theme of secrecy. We’re super excited to spend another season with Blue, Gansey, Noah, Ronan and Adam.

This episode was recorded on 1 October 2022.
