SEASON 8 EPISODE 8: REVENGE
Ah yes, revenge! Fun to fantasise about, but not great for the soul, if we’re honest. That’s our theme this week as we read chapters 48-53 of The Dream Thieves. Fair to say some of our characters are more hung up about revenge than others - lots to discuss!
In this section, Blue calls on Calla’s psychometry and then has a hard conversation with Adam. Persephone takes Adam under her wing and helps him balance his Cabeswater bargain with his trauma. Blue and Gansey share an intense moment, but they agree that whatever they’re feeling, they can’t do that to Adam. Ronan dreams about his father, and angers Kavinsky by not rising to his bait.
In case you missed it, we’ve already read the first book in the series, The Raven Boys, for season 5.
