I took this book out from the library while away, didn't finish it, and picked it up from my library the day I landed. I love the world building and the bureaucracy of it, even if I still don't know what the hell the colors mean (I'll get there!). I adore Din and can't wait for him to come into his own- I absolutely love reading a well choreographed fight, and I do presume
everyone is a little bi until proven otherwise,
so it was nice to be right :) Ana is hysterical and had me laughing out loud more than once. The side characters were also great, and you really feel for all of them, including the titans! What the hell is up with that and WHY do they have faces?!?!? I think the mystery was decently done, and there was enough given away that I could anticipate the twists, which I love! Readers should be able to solve it! Needless to say I will be picking up the next installment the second it comes out <3
