Daughter of Smoke & Bone by Laini Taylor
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a five star book for me. I am in love with this story and Laini Taylor has captured my heart. Karou is a unique human with blue hair. No it is not dyed, but she was born this way. She is a young artist in Prague with hilarious friends who finds a mysterious man following her. No, it is not her strange acting vampire ex-boyfriend, but an angel. Who is he and what does he want?

Karou also has a strange second life where she had family that are beasts. These beasts are wonderful and caring to Karou and many times she is asked to adventure into the world to collect teeth for them. She never questions the reasons for these requests because she loves them unconditionally. This is the only family she knows. Until a catastrophic event changes Karou's life and her family is lost. She cannot find them or enter their world. She is all alone and the only one who can help her is the mysterious angel, Akiva, who shows up on her doorstep. This is the beginning of their love affair.
