I admit I might be a little biased because it was one of my first books when I started into books of the super natural. I originally read this book years ago because I wanted to read something different. I absolutely loved it right away. I loved the way it potrayed everything in fey compared to the happy, cute, little faeries people traditionally think of. And the fact that it is set in modern times makes it more relateable as opposed to reading something set in a time that I haven't experienced and don't really know a whole lot about. I can't even remember how many times I have reread this book. I couldn't get enough of Tithe. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes, well, modern faerie tales. And wants to read something about a more real side of fairy rather than all the pixy dust, god mothers, and bibbity bobbity boo.
