*Starred Review* Sixteen-year-old Deirdre Monaghan, a gifted harpist who regularly plays for weddings as well as other events, gets the type of stage fright that makes her physically ill before a performance, that is an inauspicious way to take up a romance; but while vomiting before a tournament she meets a gorgeous boy who comes in to the restroom to keep her hair. He could be Luke Dillon, a flautist who proceeds to accompany her in the truly stellar performance. As four-leaf clovers start appearing everywhere, Deirdre develops telekinetic powers and encounters strange, unworldly those who apparently bear her ill will. Her best friend, James, another talented musician; her beloved grandmother; and her mother all are in danger, as Deirdre is targeted through the queen of Faerie. Deirdre eventually discovers she is often a cloverhand, a person who is actually able to start to see the denizens of faerie, and Luke, not the sole immortal who has her in the sights, is a gallowglass, an assassin assigned by the queen of Faerie to kill Deirdre but who falls in love with your ex instead. This beautiful and out-of-the-ordinary debut novel, using its authentic depiction of Celtic Faerie lore and dangerous forbidden love inside a contemporary American setting, will attract readers of Nancy Werlin’s Impossible (2008) and Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series. Illustrations by Jeffrey are fitting. Grades 9-12. --Diana Tixier Herald

"Vibrant and potent, YA readers trying to find faerie stories is going to be happy to find this accomplished debut novel." --Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"Chock-full with the fierce and also the fey, Maggie Stiefvater's Lament is musical, magical, and practically radiating romance. A blood-fresh reinvention of old traditions, ideal for engaging sharp minds and poetic hearts." --Cynthia Leitich Smith, author of Tantalize
