I just finished this book and I all I can manage are a bunch of inhuman squeaking noises interspersed with high pitched whining as I once again realize this book is over. 
 To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure why I enjoyed Crimson Bound (and for that matter, her other book, Cruel Beauty), so much. Is it perfect? No. Did I have questions? Yes. Did I absolutely enjoy every second of this book and getting lost in it? You betcha. 
 You know how some books just aren't your thing? You can't put your finger on it, you're not sure why, but it wasn't your cup of tea. Well, this book was the complete opposite for me. A million other people will probably read this book and find it completely mediocre and I just loved it. Period.
