Character Analysis
The Other Psychics
Blue's home in The Raven Boys is kind of like that of a Disney princess—that is to say, she has three "aunts" with magical powers who have lived with her since she was a kid. The other psychics—Calla, Persephone, and Orla—are all loud, affectionate personalities who take care of Blue like she's a kid sister or someone that they're babysitting. They can be annoying when it comes to fighting for the bathroom in the morning, but Blue knows that she can always count on them.
Declan Lynch
Declan is the shinier of the Lynch brothers. Unlike Ronan, who is angry and bitter, Declan comes across as ridiculously well-adjusted. He wears a suit, is doing fabulously in school, dates lots of pretty girls, and has control over the Lynch family funds. But because of this, Declan comes across as disingenuous—he's a little too pulled together, if you know what we mean. He and Ronan have a troubled relationship since their father's death, and it doesn't look like it will be resolved anytime soon.
Mr. Parrish
Adam's dad, Robert Parrish, is a complete and total jerk. He slaps his son around regularly and resents him for going to a fancy private school (even though Adam is paying for his tuition by working three jobs). Adam's whole goal in life is to get away from his dad, because he doesn't want to end up like him or keep being pushed around by him.
