Daughter of Smoke & Bone, by Laini Taylor Synopsis: Romeo & Juliette with angels and demons. Book Review: The first thing you notice about this novel is that strength of the author’s voice. It is witty and young and energetic, and reminds you what it’s like to be a teen. I rarely see such a fantastic portrayal of modern sensibilities outside of the best online fanfic (and just to be clear – yes, this is a compliment. There’s fanfic out there better than many published works). I want to hang out with these characters. In fact, the prose in this book is just fantastic throughout. Taylor is extremely skilled in the craft of writing.
