I havent actually read the Wicked Lovely series, so this book was a little confusing at times, however, once i got the whole faerie thing going on this book and figured out who all the characters were supposed to be and their role in this, i started to really like it. The tatoo stuff was cool and i enjoyed the plot and the love triangle. Unfortunately, the ending killed it. It needs a sequel to sort it out. But, the rest of the series isnt actually going to center around these characters, so thats quite sad.
