Lips Touch by Laini Taylor
4.0

This was an absolutely stunning read. The illustrations were breathtaking and the stories within were tragically beautiful. It was wonderful delving into Laini Taylor's writing again. A quick and refreshing read. The inspirations behind the stories were also captivatingly intriguing.

I enjoyed reading these stories, alas they all left me wanting a whole book dedicated to each story. The possibilities are endless.

It was beautiful reading about the love a mother has for her child. I would like to read more of from this loving, motherly perspective in future.
