I loved the short portion I read and have already order the Owlcrate edition because it was that good. Not to mention the cover artist is one of my absolute favorite cover artists and this is actually one of my favorite pieces by this artist. It is simple yet elegant. I have already purchased a copy for the library and am even thinking of buying a second personal edition because I like the Owlcrate and regular edition so much. The story is lovely. I love the romance in this book. It was so beautiful and kept me waiting for the next interaction between the characters. I was not impressed by the author's previous work but I may have to go back and give it another try since I enjoyed the short bit of this book that I read. The stiry is also very lyrical. I loved the writing style and how the plot unfolds. This author is one to watch and this book is a must read for YA fantasy readers.
