It was good the ending was alright, I wanted a neater bow but ah well dY~... Review to come 
 Dreams of Gods and Monsters had everything in it, war, monsters, love, mystery, new characters, lovable old ones but the beginning stopped me from really falling in love with it. 
 There was SO much story to get through and having a slow start really made me not turn the pages as fast as I did towards the second half of the story. Karou, Akiva, the angels, the humans, the war, the splits between the worlds, everything's set into a fantastic crescendo, there's danger everywhere and a precious balance between the armies but the slow beginning and small background on a new and pivotal character really drew me away from the sense in doom and I missed out on some of the tension I was expecting. 
 I love Mik and Zuze as always *kiss/punch* they are my favourite most well developed characters I've read about in ages and not even meant to be the stars of the show but stole the spot light for me. 
 okay asides from the slower start the second half had a lot of info to get through and did it fantastically, we saw from all sides and learnt more about different races of Angels and Akiva himself as well as what General asshole wanted from the humans. 
 The ending was nice, I wasn't head over heals but I was satisfied with it to a point, it wasn't a perfect bow but it did wrap up pretty well. 
 Laini's writing as always is phenomenal, the worlds she creates with words, the people, the emotions, the complexities all with amazing prose it's all really beautiful and I wish I had more of her books in my hands right now. 
 All in all I really enjoyed this trilogy and can't wait for more of Laini's books to hurry up and be in my hands xD.
