Muse of Nightmares by Laini Taylor

LANI TAYLOR HAS BLOWN MY MIND WITH THIS MASTERPIECE! The intricate way she world builds and connects her characters in ways that each of their actions from years ago affects characters in the present is SO GENIUS. I kept finding myself having to pause just so I can appreciate how much hard work that had to take on her part. I would have never guessed in a million years the direction she decided to go with this series and I found myself pleasantly surprised with each passing page. I grew to love the characters in this world and craved their happiness. She made villains complex and gray instead of just black and white. The people who I thought were evil actually had depth to them and motivations to their actions. Sarai and Lazlo Strange’s love felt so strong and the way Lani Taylor was able to create this unbreakable bond in two books is incredible. She somehow OUTDID herself with this book even though the first book was so close to perfection. Lani Taylor has to be magical because that’s the only plausible reason that she can create such beautiful stories. THIS IS WHAT A FANTASY SERIES SHOULD BE!!
