Carve the Mark by Veronica Roth
4.0

This started INCREDIBLY SLOW. However, once it was underway I can say it got good quick. Cyra is an excellent fighter - so much that she is able to to train Akos - and incredibly resiliant. I love her quick wit and her strength of character. And then there's Akos. The sweetest boy ever. I think I fell in love with him. He was perfect. Can I have 1 life size Akos age 35 please? I mean seriously.

Moving on . . . The other characters in this book, though very important in their own way, didn't hold a candle to Cyra and Akos. Can't wait to see what happens in book 2.
