This showed up on one of Tor.com's list for goth stories and this was the one for Labyrinth lovers so obviously I'm there.
It's a lot of what I like in a story - shades of Beauty and the Beast, elements of Cupid and Psyche - and also elements of some of the things that frustrate me about YA.
But I'm going to go read the sequel right now, so I'm not complaining too loudly or anything...
