When I first started reading dust I really wasn't sure if it was going to be something I enjoyed. It was definitely different from a lot of books i have been reading lately. Pixies are not creatures i have read a lot of books about, which was a refreshing change of pace! The first 50 pages, nothing was really peeking my interest. Then as I continued things really got going. After awhile you couldn't do anything but feel sorry for poor Rosalie. She continued to wedge her way into my heart the more I read on.

I really liked how realistic the whole imprisonment was. I have read plenty of damsel in distress books in the past where these women are being held captive and have been mistreated but they have rarely come across as real dire situations. There was no doubt in Dust how dire Rosalie's situation was. Devon Ashley really left nothing for you to assume was going on. She painted a very hopeless picture for these pixies and left no little detail out. I really enjoyed that. It wasn't your typical paranormal romance where the prince comes storming in to save a beautiful women who looked no worse for wear after extreme torture. Rosalie was truly what you would expect to see after all the brutalizing she endured.

I also liked the dynamic between Rosalie and Jack. There was no insta love between them, their relationship slowly progressed with the book. Their love was not the main focus of everything, which was nice too. It left me wanting more which is what a good first book in a series does! I look forward to book 2 coming out so I can see where Rosalie's journey takes her next.
