Daughter of Smoke and Bone

Been doing some research into YA novels and stumbled upon this one. I haven't read it yet but am interested. Out of all the book I looked into this one sounded the most interesting. A new twist if you will. I can't wait to read it. If any of you have would love to hear from you.

Uni and books

I've just realized I have three weeks left of my uni course. Then I really will have no excuse. I feel like I've discovered a lot about writing, and improved my own. However I also see how far I have to go. The one thing I am looking forward to is guilt free reading. At the moment when I read I'm thinking about all the other things I should be doing and it can be a bit distracting. I've just read Fallen and Torment by Lauren Kate. I enjoy a good YA novel and enjoyed these ones, think I'll buy the next book too. But what I really love is a book like The Passage by Justin Cronin, I read that earlier this year and was blown away. Justin created such an intense and real world for his characters to live in, so much so that at times I had to have a break. I liked that the story spanned such a long time. I wont spoil the ending incase you haven't read it, but it left me wondering. If you haven't read it yet, do, its a great book.
