Now that Harry Potter is done, we need a new series to read, and I have found it. I thought the book picked up rather quickly to start, and just kept right on going with keeping you hooked to the story. It was wonderful, full of action, adventure, and it wasn't told in a childish way that made you feel like you were reading a book for an 8 year old.
This is a darker tale, and it does have plenty of cuss words, and other adult situations. But this book is just AWESOME! I highly suggest it, especially for Harry Potter fans.

Pretty good urban fantasy, but a bit of a shaky start. Too much purple prose and silly poetry quotes. However, by about page 75, that all evened out and it became an interesting story. I'll be reading the sequel.

Pretty dark/angsty, sometimes excessively so. Still, an exciting read with a fun romantic subplot.

I really enjoyed this book. But, due to the frequent references to smoking, drinking, and drugs, I would not suggest this title for young adults even though it is marketed at a YA book. Aside from that, the story is imaginative and the characters are very easy to identify with.

(YA Catagory) Surprisingly really good....But....be forewarned it does contain scenes with drugs, language, and violence. That being said, I am looking forward to the next in the series.
