Pretty writing, but the insta-love was too much for me. I also didn't understand the storyline very well, but that's just reader inadequacy, haha.

This was an interesting book- I loved the writing style and the concept, but I didn't really enjoy the relationship between the main character and the fae- I found it rushed and forced. Other than that, though, a good read.

I was really disappointed with this book- really, the series as a whole, which seemed to just go downhill. The characters were dull and lifeless, the plot wasn't enticing in the slightest, and I am extremely bitter with the final relationships as I found them rushed. I think I was just mad that [spoiler] Moria and Gavril didn't get together, which was what I wanted from the beginning, so romance-wise I'm probably not the one to go to :) [end spoiler]I was really disappointed with this book- really, the series as a whole, which seemed to just go downhill.

I loved this book. It was deliciously creepy, the writing flowed beautifully, and the characters were genuine and likable. The only thing I had an issue with was the ending, which in my opinion didn't have to lag on as long as it did. Overall a wonderfully unique book that I highly recommend, despite it being aimed towards younger readers :)I loved this book.

This is a charming, interesting book with a plot twist and quirky characters- it just wasn't my thing. I had to struggle through most of it since I wasn't very accustomed to the writing style, and I found the plot painfully slow. Still a cute, unique book though- although it certainly wasn't for me.This is a charming, interesting book with a plot twist and quirky characters- it just wasn't my thing.

This was a great book. The main character was headstrong and lovable- she was adorably naive about certain things, and her friendship with other female characters as well as just everyone around her made her seem almost like a friend to me. Her development was believable, and the romance was also charming. The story had me compelled and looking forward to what was coming next. A great read!This was a great book.

This book wins the prize for the brattiest, rudest, most annoying character in all of the YA novel world. She's constantly judging others, making stupid decisions, and basically making it impossible to feel for her and care about what happens to her. The romance was stupid, too. I did not enjoy this book.This book wins the prize for the brattiest, rudest, most annoying character in all of the YA novel world.

This was a heartfelt book which I thoroughly enjoyed. I loved the author's writing style, and her descriptions of depression were very well done. Including references to physics and questions was a great way to make the book more interesting- they also helped make the reader think. I highly recommend this book.This was a heartfelt book which I thoroughly enjoyed. I loved the author's writing style, and her descriptions of depression were very well done.
