I was excited when I saw the recommendation by Stephenie Meyer on the front, but the book felt underdeveloped to me. I just felt like it could have been better, more fleshed out. And the love triangle didn't feell real to me; I didn't buy her attraction to Tamani. <br /><br />Having said that, I loved the originality of how she crafted her faeries, how they're really plants. So cool! I also loved that Laurel was sweet and nice. That's often hard to find in YA books these days.Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06851403823244758904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390019422100466668.post-49434845048913142042010-07-12T10:48:58.817-07:002010-07-12T10:48:58.817-07:00I found the beginning kinda slow to, but I enjoyed...I found the beginning kinda slow to, but I enjoyed it.

You're right it was unpredictable, and very mysterious. I definitely agree with the notion of first person ^^^. You know the character more when in first person, and it could have made this book better, even though it was already good.bianca_riothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14849931943587613130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390019422100466668.post-34271444158871524822010-04-24T07:49:35.779-07:002010-04-24T07:49:35.779-07:00Nice review!

I definitely second the notion of first person, since I didn't feel like I knew Laurel too well, and I think Laurel fell in love with Tamani just because of his mystery and intrigue whereas David is just...
