But, I feel like I need to give credit where it’s due. I don’t exactly fawn over writing style, and for that reason, I didn’t necessarily love this book because it had great writing. Daughter of Smoke & Bone is probably like no other paranormal book you’ve read, and for that, I really applaud Laini Taylor! The politics, races, and wars were all really interesting and original. There’s no doubt that Laini Taylor has created a brilliant world in this story. He signed up to be a nude model in her art class, and to get revenge, Karou wished that he’d get really itchy in… certain places… so he did… Hahaha, epic. I loved her humour, her badassness, and the hilarious way she tried to get revenge on her ex-boyfriend. I loved imagining the city, and the other places Karou traveled to. There was something so great about finally reading a book that doesn’t take place in America.
I didn’t hate it, but I never loved it the way everyone else seems to. I’m so torn on Daughters of Smoke & Bone. But will Karou live to regret learning the truth about herself? When beautiful, haunted Akiva fixes fiery eyes on her in an alley in Marrakesh, the result is blood and starlight, secrets unveiled, and a star-crossed love whose roots drink deep of a violent past.
Who is she? That is the question that haunts her, and she’s about to find out. She fills her sketchbooks with monsters that may or may not be real, she’s prone to disappearing on mysterious "errands", she speaks many languages-not all of them human-and her bright blue hair actually grows out of her head that color. In a dark and dusty shop, a devil’s supply of human teeth grown dangerously low.Īnd in the tangled lanes of Prague, a young art student is about to be caught up in a brutal otherwordly war. Published by: Little Brown Books for Young Readers on September 27, 2011Īround the world, black handprints are appearing on doorways, scorched there by winged strangers who have crept through a slit in the sky.
