April 8- May 23 Summary -Around the world, black handprints are appearing on doorways, scorched there by winged strangers who have crept through a slit in the sky. In a dark and dusty shop, a devil’s supply of human teeth grown dangerously low. And in the tangled lanes of Prague, a young art student...
Daughter of Smoke and Bone, by Laini Taylor, has been sitting on my bedside table for weeks now. I've been carrying it with me when I traveled, as back up for when my iPad ran out of juice. Did you know books can guilt trip you if you ignore them long enough? Library books are especially good at gui...
Oh my. It’s been a while since I’ve read an excellent book. Then you pick up a giant tome like this one and it just sweeps you off your feet. I fell in love with this book in the first few 50 pages.

And now that I am typing this I realize that I'm very behind on reviewing the books I've read -- an...
I could write a novella about how much I loved this book. Instead, let me keep it simple. The world Taylor creates is enthralling and the characters well developed, unique and relateable.
