Dark and twisty and interesting. All of the descriptions had me glued to the pages. The death and decay vibe was just so prevalent everywhere but described with such tangible imagery. 

A WHOLE star off for that egregious kiss though. Did not need that to be in the story. We can have platonic relationships between sexes too, you know

This book was hauntingly beautiful in a way that made me want to read it again when I finished it to look for anything I had missed. I was very impressed with the vocabulary of the author and her ability to describe characters and setting as if we were stepping into the story.

A dark, exciting, mysterious fairytale. There are some heavy themes and things certainly get intense, but I was really pleased by the way the story comes together...even when things get dark and sad.
