I received this copy from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review 
 Followed by Frost gives a fairy tale feeling, moral and all, like the ones you read as a child. So if you don't like fairy tales, this book is probably not for you. Although the premise about a girl being cursed to be cold and take winter with her because of her cold heart may seem cliche, the story is very well executed. Smitha has a very gradual growth as a character throughout the years. It is a very introspective narrative, so you read as she slowly starts thinking and feeling different leaving behind her old selfish self. 
 Her relationship with Lo is very sweet and cute. No insta-love, and gradual as everything else in the book and no passionate moments between them as they can't touch each other, (view spoiler)[ and at the end, when they can touch it's just a really sweet moment. Lo's reaction when he saw Smitha without the curse was so good, so heartfelt (hide spoiler)] 
 The thing I liked most about this book was Death (a.k.a Sadriel). He was such an interesting character! You never know how he is feeling or what he is thinking. Sometimes you love him, sometimes you hate him, and sometimes you pity him. You never get to understand his motives or his actions and I find myself wanting to learn more about him. I'm kind of pissed Smitha didn't question or talked to him more. However, I think this mysterious aura and personality changes where done on purpose by the author... after all, he IS Death, we are not supposed to understand him and it was done beautifully. Despite everything, I miss him. I would have loved an epilogue with Smitha dying because of old age and meeting him one last time.
