I am so mad at myself for putting off reading this, but I am very thankful that I finally came to my senses. 
 This book was utterly amazing. The concept was original and compelling, combining myth and legend, resurrection and TRUE love, in a world that was so well-written it feels like reality. I will say at the beginning, before one of the best plot twists I've EVER read was revealed to me, I was a bit annoyed at the insta-love I felt happening between the main characters. But, as I said, now I know why and it makes my heart that much more full. :) 
 Laini Taylor has woven something magical and I now understand why this story is so loved. Now, please excuse me while I go curl into a ball and sob over that ending.
