Daughter of Smoke and Bone (D of S &Bone one)By Laini TaylorAround the world, black handprints are appearing on doorways, scorched there by winged strangers who have crept through a slit in the sky. In a dark and dusty shop, a devil's supply of human teeth grown dangerously low. And in the tangled lanes of Prague, a young art student is about to be caught up in a brutal otherwordly war.
Meet Karou. She fills her sketchbooks with monsters that may or may not be real; she's prone to disappearing on mysterious "errands"; she speaks many languages--not all of them human; and her bright blue hair actually grows out of her head that color. Who is she? That is the question that haunts her, and she's about to find out.
When one of the strangers--beautiful, haunted Akiva--fixes his fire-colored eyes on her in an alley in Marrakesh, the result is blood and starlight, secrets unveiled, and a star-crossed love whose roots drink deep of a violent past. But will Karou live to regret learning the truth about herself?
OMG, Great debut book!!! (Sorry, I will NOT
review this book, BECAUSE, I might not do this book justice!) Different, New age, Complicated, Promising, Heart
wrenching!!!!
Brilliant… Amazing! And Hopeful… I Loved Loved it! Laini Taylor is a great writer! I proclaim thee Best BOOK of 2011! More Please!

Once upon a time,
an angel and a devil fell in
love.
It did not end well.
Once upon a time,
a little girl was raised by
monsters.
But angels burned the
doorways to their world,
and she was all alone.
Once upon a time,
an angel lay dying in the
mist.
And a devil knelt over him
and smiled.
Once upon a time,
There were two moons, who were
sisters.
Nitid was the goddess of tears
and life,
and the sky was hers.
No one worshipped
Ellai but secret lovers.
