Around the world, black handprints are appearing on doorways, scorched there by winged strangers who have crept through a slit in the sky. In a dark and dusty shop, a devil's supply of human teeth grown dangerously low. And in the tangled lanes of Prague, a young art student is about to be caught up in a brutal otherwordly war. Meet Karou. She fills her sketchbooks with monsters that may or may not be real; she's prone to disappearing on mysterious "errands"; she speaks many languages--not all of them human; and her bright blue hair actually grows out of her head that color. Who is she? That is the question that haunts her, and she's about to find out. When one of the strangers--beautiful, haunted Akiva--fixes his fire-colored eyes on her in an alley in Marrakesh, the result is blood and starlight, secrets unveiled, and a star-crossed love whose roots drink deep of a violent past. But will Karou live to regret learning the truth about herself? - Good Reads
This book started out and I thought to myself, "Mmm, this is kind of trippy." and then I thought it was a little weird and then... I fell in love! Laini Taylor, where have you been all my life? I hadn't heard of her before I read this and I definitely want to check more of her novels out, because her writing is stylish and I love it.
“She moved like a poem and smiled like a sphinx.”
“It is a condition of monsters that they do not perceive themselves as such. The dragon, you know, hunkered in the village devouring maidens, heard the townsfolk cry 'Monster!' and looked behind him.”
“Yearning for love made her feel like a cat that was always twining around ankles, meowing Pet me, pet me, look at me, love me.”
The descriptions were rich and I was able to imagine some fantastical creatures that I've never seen before as clear as day. That's a big deal to me: being able to get a clear picture in my mind of what I'm reading. I've been know to put down books that lacked good descriptions because it's hard for me to get lost in a story, because I'll sit and obsess about what I should be seeing while I read. And there were very few parts of the story that dragged and when they did it didn't last very long and I was back in the groove.
I'm not going to go into too much detail about what the book contains and what the paranormal aspect is, because the summary is vague and I went into it in the dark and that made it all the better! But Laini Taylor has a bright and vivid imagination: she takes something that tends to be cut and dry and fairly similar in each novel I've read and turned it into something elaborate, exciting and different.
There was a wonderful romance and studly love interest. They were totally starcrossed SOULM8S and I eat that up. And back to the studly love interest: he's just UNSGSDKHGKDFHGHFDKGDKFDHFKGHDKJFGDKJFG - very cool. I'd hit it. I agree with Karou's best friend when she first saw Akiva and said, “Oh, Hell. Must. Mate. Immediately.”
Please go forth and read this book! It's amazing!
5 out 5 Hello Kitties!
GIVEAWAY TIME
I have a hardback copy to giveaway. I am a dummy and completely won two copies on this book. I'll be completely honest... I actually mixed the title up with The Girl of Fire and Thorns. Yeah, point and laugh! Fiiiiiiiiine! I'm stupid! So, I have an extra copy. And I want to share it with you! This is unfortunately for US entrants only though, because I'm too poor to afford international shipping. BUT IF YOU'RE INTERNATIONAL... If you really want this book, go ahead and go over to my 200 Followers Giveaway and enter and if you win you're free to choose a copy of this instead!
Wow, I literally just finished my 100 Followers Giveaway and now it's time for 200! Thank you all so much for following and reading and commenting on my blog!
Up for grabs....
The winner gets to choose their book of choice! These are books I've either read and loved or am looking forward to reading!

As Faith Reynolds enters her freshman year of college, she is a complete and utter nervous wreck. With her best friend Derek suddenly pulling out the romance card and her dark, mysterious classmate staring her down at every turn, Faith somehow feels stuck in the middle without dating either one. And fortune may or may not be with her when a devilshly sexy stranger offers her a welcome escape.Boys, romance, classes, and annoying roommates are all within the realm of the expected for a college frosh. Trying to solve the mysterious murders of young college coeds near campus is not. Darkness seems to be creeping into every corner of Faith's life, no matter the hour. And when she seeks the truth, danger seems to be the only thing that finds her.Faith is well aware of the strange currents in the air, particularly when she sets off static sparks with everything she touches. Before long, she finds herself entrenched in the deep-seeded battle between werewolves and vampires. The war has reached the tipping point, and Faith has the power to determine where the scales fall. But the most important question may be with whom does her loyalty lie?Deliciously suspenseful and immediately addictive, Blood on the Moon features a headstrong heroine and all of the thrills, chills, and otherworldly boys with deadly charm that a human could ask for. - Good Reads
I received another copy of this in the mail today from Running Press. I'm not sure if it was sent purposely or accidentally, but they already sent me a copy... so this extra is up for grabs! I enjoyed this book a lot and you can read my review HERE!
Unfortunately, this particular giveaway is US only. But I'll be having a 200 Followers Giveaway soon that will include my International friends!
Well, I went past the mark of 100 followers this past week and I'm so excited! Thank you all for following and an especially big thanks to all of you that take the time to comment! Your comments brighten my day!
There will be 1 winner who can choose 1 of the following books!
A pre-order of Soul Screamers: Volume One, which releases November 15'th 2011! This has 0.5 - 2. So, two and a half books! I just found out about this and I'm in love! Soul Screamers is one of my favourites and it'd be nice for new readers to the series!
A copy of Shade by Jeri Smith-Ready. This is hands down one of the best books I've ever read. EVER. I'm in love. Aaah, I think everyone should read this and Shift!
A pre-order of Half-Blood (Convenant #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout, which releases on October 18th 2011! I really enjoyed the prequel Daimon and am looking forward to this book!
Note: If the winner doesn't want to wait for Soul Screamers Volume 1 to release, they have the option of opting for another book in the Soul Screamers series. Or if the winner has Shade already, they can ask for a copy of Shift instead! I'm just trying to pimp the books I love!
This giveaway is open Internationally - as long as the Book Depository ships to your country! You can see a list of countries here.
Well, I loved this book so much that I'd like to share it with as many people as possible! So, obviously a giveaway is in order! This giveaway is for a e-book copy of Perception! Winner can choose a Kindle or Nook version depending on what kind of e-reader they have! I do plan to do a paperback giveaway in the future too, so don't fret if you don't have an e-reader!
To a lot of people this may seem like a silly and small accomplishment, but I'm currently quite cheesed out. I remember a few weeks ago, I told my husband, "honey, I have 7 followers" in a tone that oozed badass. WELL, HONEY, NOW I HAVE 50... ACTUALLY 53! Thank you for following me and thank you to the people who leave me comments. I obsessively check my e-mail for comments and I get super excited when I get new ones.
