I really enjoyed this book! I'm not sure what I was expecting when I began reading it but holy crap it was nothing like what I expected. It was so much more fantasy based then what I've been reading lately that I felt so relaxed reading it: all my real world cares just drifted away. I also kept coming back to the beginning of the novel, how we meet our protagonist, and how freaking much she changes throughout! Holy character development batman! It was a really inventive and creative story and I'm currently searching for a way to purchase the next two books in this series. Also, it feels great to finally understand the cover art!
