I read this book in a day, I loved this book so much. I was so upset with myself when I had to wait so long for the next one to come out that I couldn't read anything else until I was able to finish this series. This series is one of my top favorites, I love the story progression between Emilia and Wrath. There were several surprises that I didn't see coming.

REREAD: still really enjoyed the book maybe not as much as when I first read it but still enjoyed it a lot.

Original Review:
HOLY COW!!! FINALLY a book worth raving about!
Not gonna lie it took me a good 1/4 (quarter) of the book to really get into it. I heard about how good this book was from my friend Bridget (darkfaerietales_) and so I knew it was gonna be good... then I couldn't get into it, but due to a long road trip I was able to listen to it TILL I got to the part I was hooked. FINALLY!
It's been a LONG time since I found a book I couldn't put down. Yes I've become that incredibly picky.
I finally finished this book last night just after 12am and I immediately looked for when book 2 comes out. AND I ordered the UK hardback of this book even though I already has the US version. That's how much I loved this book!
The writing was excellent! Everything was very well done. The world building was vivid and clear. The characters had depth and substance to them. Nothing was what it seemed (although I will say I figured out the mystery of "who done it" very early on) in regards to the characters because there was just so much more than your typical mystery. This was no ordinary mystery there was so much more to the story and it's characters. I could see, hear, taste, and smell everything the author wrote. Everything about this book was beautiful and vivid. I LOVED IT!
I'm desperate to get my hands on book 2 and can't wait for that day to come!
MUST OWN!

Had to change this review from 3 to 2 stars, because after further consideration, I gave it more credit than it deserves. Nellie's review said it best. I agree with nearly every point made in their review. The concept for this book was just too good to pass up, but was not written well at all. Unfortunately, I will be reading the second book in hopes it can somewhat redeem this disappointment.
