What stand out for me in this book...

1. The book is not only written by Zoey's Perspective and we also got perspectives from Stevie Rae, Rephaim, Aphrodite, Heath and Stark. My most favorite among this perspectives is Rephaim's perspective simply because it's coming from an enemy's point of view and it is interesting that I've learned that Raven Mockers are not that really bad and they just want to please and obey their father Kalona.

2. The Stevie Rae and Rephaim relationship which reminds me of Beauty and the Beast and The Phantom of the Opera. Stevie Rae for me she's my favorite female character now because she's more complex than Zoey. In my opinion I think she's kind of steal the limelight away from Zoey in this book and I think her character outshined Zoey. I love how she argues about that there's still humanity with Rephaim and the Raven Mockers and also her bad red fledglings and that is a matter of choice if they want to choose goodness versus evil. I also like how she thinks that how can we judge who's worth saving and if that would happen would it be like playing God. I loved that their relationship grew and they are now Imprinted because Stevie Rae saves Rephaim and in the end Rephaim saves her too. I'm looking forward to them more than to Stark-Zoey relationship actually. I think they had the most complex and possibly most meaningful love story in the series.

3. Zoey finally dumped Erik Night. My God I was very happy that that happened because I really don't like Erik and I want to somehow lessen the number of Boys that wants Zoey. And I think Erik really go downhill in this book and what he said to Zoey is very rude eventhough it is somehow true but still it's very rude that he said it to her.

4. The last thing, was the ENDING. I was like Oh My God, it's really a shocker and it's also kind of cliffhanger and confusing and stuff. I really wanted to read the next one!

Joyzi I like the writing style, it was informal and the dialogues are very much closer to how teenagers talk like they cuss, talk a lot about pop culture etc.
