Crescent City meets Atlas Six in this urban fantasy about shadows with darker purposes and a lust for blood (only tidbits, though).

Maybe it's me, but I was disappointed in this one compared to the other books I've devoured of Black's. I struggled with this plot and protagonist, but I also feel like this could just be at right now at the time of reading this?

Holly Black, I knew I could trust you!! When this first came out there were so many mixed reviews so I put it off. I wish I hadn’t. I absolutely loved it! All the twists and turns kept me guessing and even when I KNEW how things would turn out, new information was revealed that made me second guess myself. I don’t know. Love these characters, loved this story, can’t wait to see where the series goes.
