Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor

5.0

 I was a little intimidated to start this one at first because I heard how beautiful the prose was and how lovely everything was, and I like books that move along pretty fast-paced. I like character development and not a ton of flowery, descriptive writing, so I was worried about this one. I was so pleasantly surprised. I did like the mixture of beautiful descriptions and action. It never felt stagnant or even slow at all. It was just such a great story of Lazlo Strange learning about who he really is and where he is meant to be. I was cheering for him and brokenhearted with him from the very beginning and those feelings only intensified as we got to the end. I could feel his yearning and his hopelessness at times and it was just such an immersive reading experience. I am going straight to the next book because I have to find out about his Muse of Nightmares.
