An outstanding YA fantasy romance. The perfect balance of world building, character archs, and witty poetic dialogue. It keeps a fast pace and has depth fitting for the age demographic (13-17). It hits on themes and topics with quick and clear prose that makes the point without beating it home. The tension between the two main characters builds beautifully as their two relationships parallel through the book. 

If you keep in mind that this book is YA, you will enjoy it. If you expect the depth, world building, or dynamics of an adult book, you will be disappointed.

A unique concept that will entertain and thrill any YA book lover.
