Such an amazing read! It may be the first Schwab's book, but it definitely won't be the last (A Darker Shade of Magic, yes, I am talking about you).

Review coming soon :D ...more

I absolutely loved this book! Victoria Is just so good and creating this worlds were magic and monsters coexist and yes the chaos of those mundane and magical things living together explode off the pages. I love monsters and with this book it's hard to tell whose the worst, humanity or the actual monsters? I can't wait to read the 2nd book and find out what happens. ...more

When I first heard about this book, I just knew that I had to get my hands on it. It sounded amazing, and it's just one of those books that disrupt the book community because everyone is reading it and everyone wants to get their hands on it.

I've never read a Victoria Schwab book in my life. After this book, she is one of my favorite authors and I need to read everything else she has written.

This Savage Song is the perfect young-adult fantasy novel that comes around every so often. AND there i When I first heard about this book, I just knew that I had to get my hands on it.

This Savage Song is the perfect young-adult fantasy novel that comes around every so often. AND there is NO ROMANCE! I repeat, there is NO ROMANCE! What kind of sorcery is this? A young adult novel that has no romance yet is better than almost anything I've ever read before?

It didn't even need romance.

The characters were so kickass and just plain awesome that they didn't need to fall in love with each other. They just needed to care about being a good person and caring about what might happen to someone else.

Kate Harker and August Flynn were just awesome. Kate was incredibly bad ass; I wouldn't want to get on her bad side. August had to struggle with being a monster when all he really wanted was to be human. And when he shifted... I wouldn't want to mess with him either. When you put the two together in a nonromantic way, the story just writes itself.

I hated Harker and Sloan but I loved hating them in a way. They sucked but their characters made for an awesome story with some awesome twists.

I keep saying awesome but I feel as if that fully captures what I'm trying to say. It inspires awe.

Schwab writes the story where you get to know everything in this futuristic/dystopian type land without presenting it all in an info dump. The history comes gradually and naturally. I still don't understand everything about this world that Schwab has created but I know that this is a series so there will be more to come.

I really loved when Kate first found out what August was she had this big game plan to capture August and present him to her dad but she couldn't go through with it. She liked him as a friend and could be herself around him.

This book takes the monsters from under your bed, the monsters from the real world and gives them a different spin. I loved everything about the monsters. They were different and not just basic monsters. You had the Corsai, Malchai, and Sunai were fantastic. I loved the monsters.

This Savage Song was an amazing book. It's one of the best fantasy books that I've ever read. The world that Schwab creates is addicting. The characters are great, the plot is fantastic. I need book two now! Read this book and join in on the non-romantic-awesome-plot-great-characters that is This Savage Song. ...more
