CURRENTLY READING: Days of Blood and Starlight

     Hello fellows!
 
     After posting my first review, Daughter of Smoke and Bone, my natural bookish instinct was to commence my reading on the sequel, Days of Blood and Starlight.

*I HIGHLY SUGGEST YOU DON'T READ ANY FURTHER IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE FIRST BOOK YET*

Title: Days of Blood and Starlight
Author: Laini Taylor
Publisher: Little, Brown and Company
Date Released: November 6, 2012
Number of Pages: 513
Summary:
Once upon a time, an angel and a devil fell in love and dared to imagine a world free of bloodshed and war.This is not that world.Art student and monster's apprentice Karou finally has the answers she has always sought. She knows who she is—and what she is. But with this knowledge comes another truth she would give anything to undo: She loved the enemy and he betrayed her, and a world suffered for it.In this stunning sequel to the highly acclaimed Daughter of Smoke & Bone, Karou must decide how far she'll go to avenge her people. Filled with heartbreak and beauty, secrets and impossible choices, Days of Blood & Starlight finds Karou and Akiva on opposing sides as an age-old war stirs back to life.While Karou and her allies build a monstrous army in a land of dust and starlight, Akiva wages a different sort of battle: a battle for redemption. For hope.But can any hope be salvaged from the ashes of their broken dream?
 
     So far, so good. I'm currently on chapter 22, and it's riveting. The action starts right away and you're captured into the book by the second page. Uhh, now I feel like I'm reviewing the book already. Long story short: if you enjoyed Daughter of Smoke and Bone, I promise you, you will adore Days of Blood and Starlight.

     That's all for my post, and remember: you should be a tree; they have awesome afterlives.
