My Thoughts: I am a huge fan of fairy tale re-tellings and this one did not disappoint!! I knew how I wanted the story to end fairly quickly and couldn't put it down till I found out what happened. It ended perfect and it took quite a few twists and turns to get there. Such a good book. Definitely worth a read!!

The wound inflicted only a few minutes before was nearly healed. A small cut was the only sign that anything had occurred. I watched in disbelief as it finished closing and eventually disappeared.
“What are you?”

Gods, demons, fiends, eighteen year old Alina Taylor doesn’t believe in any of them, until she meets Samuel Grant and Duncan Michaels, and discovers a world that could destroy everything she loves. (Summary from Goodreads)


My Thoughts: I enjoyed the story. There was a kind of crazy love triangle, but it was a little different than most I've read. The ending was incredible. I totally didn't see it coming at all!! I can't wait for the next book to come out.
