I didn't like the Harry Potter references because I think after the things that she did we should avoid everything JKR like the plague.

I did like the illustrations – the roses! The moths! – and I loved Esen and Dev.
Maybe I'm too old now for YA, though.

I had quite a few issues with it actually, characters being vague is only part of it, but I did still enjoy this book.

j'ai trouvé l'écriture banale, vraiment pas incroyable. en fait c'est très YA dans le sens cliché du terme, même si j'arriverais pas à exprimer précisément pourquoi.
et surtout, surtout, la romance m'a fait ni chaud ni froid. c'est trop rapide, irréaliste, et si niais?? trop pour moi en tout cas. le fait que ça soit l'élément central du livre explique pourquoi je l'ai si peu aimé. en +, les personnages sont complètement définies par la romance, j'ai pas réussi à m'y attacher ou à ressentir quoique ce soit quand il leur arrivait des trucs. et du coup les personnages secondaires sont pas du tout creusé.es, ce qui est carrément dommage vu qu'au moins elleux auraient pas été défini.es par l'amour.
c'est dommage parce que le début vend du suspense, un univers intéressant. mais au final l'univers est pas du tout exploré, on apprend rien dessus. et après le début on doit attendre 100 pages (sur 289 pour l'ebook) pour qu'il y ait un tout petit peu d'action. couvert, toujours, sous le rose bonbon de la romance.
