First off, the covers for this series are just gorgeous! But what I fell in love with the most, was the concept -a floating city in the sky where you can be anything you want to be as long as you follow one rule. Don't go close to the edge!

Bring on book 2!Mostly because the ending left me hanging so awful.... gawd.I've read good and bad reviews for this one before I read it, and I feel I fall in the middle somewhere.

I won't read anything else from this author ever again.The beginning felt mesmerizing, but I couldn't help myself from judging Morgan's nativity. Calling her world perfect and all... Also, I really don't like that name.I was also annoyed of the ...

This story of a girl in a floating city, similar to and yet distant from our own world, may have had some pacing problems for me at the end, but was an overall pretty enthralling tale with a captivating main character and a wonderful premise (and I agree with Sam that it totally reminded me of Biosh...
