Wicked Lovely
by Melissa Marr
I have kept my eye on this book for such a long time, and ever since Gina from YAFictionFreaks recommended it, I have longed to get the book. I finally checked it out from the libaray. Luckily I did!
The story is told from 3rd omnicious between basically Keenan, Donia, and Aislinn. I thought that that POV was the best way to tell the story -- having each character have their emotions put across to the reader made it easier to become attached to the charcaters like I did. Unfortunately, I did not really become attached to Aislinn. Of course, she's been seeing the fey for all her life (and that's not a spoiler just ta let ya know) and everything that comes with that, but when I was telling her to go along with Keenan (who happens to be my favorite character in the whole book) and be his Summer Queen and fall in love with him, she ignored me and did what I didn't want her to do. Keenan didn't do anything to her. Why should she act like a total jerk to him? That's one of the reasons why I gave it four stars.
And also the author made it obvious to hate one of the characters. Beria (I think that's how you spell it. I don't really have the book in front of me.), the Winter Queen, is a major "biotch", and if I could pop up into the book, I would kill her in the most slow and painful way. Yes. I hated her that much.
But personally, the ending, even though it's not with the same pairings as I would want, was a very beautiful and wonderful way to wrap up the story and lead others gracefully to the sequel, Ink Exchange. I can't wait!
