Everything was terrible for a while there, man.She is definitely an author who believes in showing, not just telling. Laini Taylor’s writing and world building is so immersive and fun as the reader.While I do understand that from Karou’s side, her feelings for Akiva are pretty inexplicable until the big reveal at the end of the first book, those who weren’t too keen on the relationship angle would probably like Days of Blood & Starlight better, since for the first 3/4 of the book the two main characters aren’t “on screen” together. One of the book club complaints about the first book was the insta-love aspect of the first book.Here are a few of the highlights that stood out to me during my deep dive back into the world of angels and chimaera: I’m in the camp of firmly loving the series, and I discovered in my re-read that there were things I had completely forgotten about until they started to happen, so that actually made the re-read even more enjoyable. As you may recall, our Book Club read the first book as our January read and it had sort of mixed reviews from our group.įair warning, in case you didn’t pay attention to the title, there are SPOILERS AHEAD! This past weekend I finished my re-read of the Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy by Laini Taylor.
