I really like the concept, of it being a modern town with modern technology, intersecting with Faerie and magic. The last probably quarter took me from, "I really like this book" to, "Wow, I LOVE this book." ( ) This book was so delightfully creepy. Creepy is not usually my genre, but this book pulled it off without too much focus on the horror parts of the story(and there were some). I thought the characters were interesting and the romance balanced nicely to not overtake the story, but present enough to be nice. I thought this was a much darker fariy novel. I did like the characters and the world building but the conflict could have been stronger at points and the plot did drag. I really did love the myth she created in this book and the darker story that we got. The thing that stood out to me was the world building and the characters. I feel like the plot was unbalanced at points and slow burn but I am glad I read it. I am excited to see what ties it has to her cruel prince series! I thought this was a much darker fariy novel.

I feel like the plot was unbalanced at points and slow burn but I am glad I read it. I am excited to see what ties it has to her cruel prince series! Hazel lives with her brother, Ben, in the strange town of Fairfold where humans and fae exist side by side. The faeries’ seemingly harmless magic attracts tourists, but Hazel knows how dangerous they can be, and she knows how to stop them. Or she did, once. At the center of it all, there is a glass coffin in the woods. It rests right on the ground and in it sleeps a boy with horns on his head and ears as pointed as knives. Hazel and Ben were both in love with him as children. The boy has slept there for generations, never waking. Until one day, he does… I’m realizing I’ve now read four Holly Black books in two months. Woo. Totally unintentional, yo. I found myself absolutely riveted to this audiobook after several false starts where I just couldn’t get hooked in, but once I did I really enjoyed myself. It’s an interesting take on the urban fantasy fairy interactions -- complete with female warrior, believable LGBT characters. Whimsical, beautiful, dark, fun. The mechanic that the story depended on was awesome, though I did see the twist coming from a mile away, darnit. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
