Another fabulous KD novel. This one really had me sobbing and gasping "I love them so much". Kate and Curran working together is my favorite. I absolutely adore them and abandoning my TBR to continue this series instead of savoring it like I planned ha!

It was good, but lacking in drawing the reader into the story fully. I felt like an outsider reading it.

Wow. An amazingly fun and entertaining read! I would have read another 400 pages. That was soo juicy and delicious - the characters all had their own personalities and the plot was angsty and full of layers. Job well done and I cannot wait for further books in the series!

Eh maybe I'll come back to this but most likely not. Needs more magic and less annoying vamprism.

Why oh why would the narrator completely change the way she pronounces the magical creatures vital to the story? Perhaps I'll revisit in ebook form, but I will not continue this audiobook.
