I am becoming notorious for not reading good books until everyone else has made it impossible to avoid. When do you think I will learn? 
 I wasn't really sure what to expect from this book, but no matter what I imagined, this was ten times better. Unique, is the word I would most use to describe this book. From the complex web of plot and back story, to the very setting. I mean, how many YA stories take place in Prague?! And though I have never been there, it all became very real to me. 
 I won't go into detail about the plot, and I don't even want to discuss the characters. I want everyone to go into reading this as in the dark as I was. It was truly a great journey, falling down the rabbit hole. Laini Taylor's writing style is most definitely purple in hue, but it fit perfectly with the story. 
 Consider my socks knocked off. That's right, ladies and gents. I am sockless.
