How in the world am i supposed to rate this? this deserves a million stars.

I feel like I always say this, but gosh this book made me feel things I did not think was possible. this book is a reminder of WHY I love reading. Not to mention the writing is out of this world it literally made me feel as if I was there

The first half of the book I was like; What the heck am I reading?! But as I read on it got much better and I actually came to love the characters! Can't wait for Muse of Nightmares 🤗 ...more

I thought that I would never see the end of this book!
It took me a month and I had to switch from reading it to listening to it, otherwise, I wouldn't have finished it.
I love the concept of the story and Lazlo and Saraï are amazing but it's the storytelling that bugged me. I just couldn't get into it and that was very strange for me since I loved Laini Taylor's writing so much in her previous books. In this one, I felt like the story got lost in too much flowery prose, and as beautiful as it is ...more

4.5 stars.
The writing alone is magical and whimsical and all things lovely. The plot was occasionally predictable but 9/10 I had no idea where the story was going.
I would recommend this book if you have previously enjoyed Laini Taylor's works or if you enjoy stories with a dreamer aspect.

Spoilers?

I do have to say that the love story in this book felt very sudden and insta-lovey which was a tad annoying and could have been dealt with better. ...more

Oh Mon Dieu!! Ce livre *.* J'ai adoré ... un vrai et gross coup de coeur 🖤

J'avais ce livre dans ma bibliothèque depuis qu'il a sorti et seulement maintenant j'ai décidé le lire et mon dieu.. je ne voulais pas laisser ce livre et cette histoire. Un livre très bien écrit et je dois vous dire que l'écriture de Laini Taylor est simplement fantástique et poétique.. je suis tombée amoureuse avec l'écriture (je veux lire tout que l'auteure a écrit) et avec cette histoire.

J'ai lu ce livre sans savoir ri ...more

2.5 Stars.

I’m sad. Why did this book disappoint me so much?! The writing was lyrical and flowery and beautiful but I really felt almost no connection to the characters or storyline once they arrived in Weep. I expected something much more intense, high stakes and fantastical. I already have the second book so I’ll probably give it a shot but considering I started this book OVER A YEAR AGO and just now finished it, I don’t have high hopes.
