Quote #1
Gansey resented having to play nicely with Ronan's older brother, a senior at Aglionby, but he understood why they had to. Freedom in the Lynch family was a complicated thing, and at the moment, Declan held the keys to it. (2.30)
Everyone has family problems, but the Lynch family has more problems than most. It's a bummer, because the icy relationship between Declan and Ronan Lynch affects everyone else—even their friends.
Quote #2
The story of the Lynch family was this: Once upon a time, a man named Niall Lynch had three sons, one of whom loved his father more than the others. Niall Lynch was handsome and charismatic and rich and mysterious, and one day, he was dragged from his charcoal-gray BMW and beaten to death with a tire iron. It was a Wednesday. On Thursday, his son Ronan found his body in the driveway. On Friday, their mother stopped speaking and never spoke again. (7.38)
Well, that's a pretty brutal and awful story. No wonder Ronan is so messed up—he's the one who found his father, after all. It's amazing that the Lynch brothers don't have more issues with all that they've been through.
Quote #3
She liked to imagine him stealing a glimpse of her over the backyard fence, proudly watching his strange daughter daydream under the beech tree.
Blue was awfully fond of her father, considering she'd never met him. (11.15-16)
Blue's pretty happy with her upbringing in a house full of psychic ladies, but she still spends a lot of time wondering what her dad is like. In fact, she has all sorts of fantasies about him, each of them pleasant.
