[tps_title]09. Karou, Daughter of Smoke & Bone By Laini Taylor
(2011)
Other than the fact that her name sounds like a superhero, Karou also has natural blue hair, a killer knack for drawing (she’s an art student!), and she grabs the attention of a super attractive guy named Akiva. She’s also an extremely well rounded and beautiful character. In a paranormal world packed with mythological creatures, there is a powerful guide to this book that leads you to the end, holding your breath. The novel is told in third person, but the stripped down to the bone, metallic truth, emotions and characterizations are so well-done you’ll prefer it by the end. In a fast-paced book full to the brim with lessons of growing up and learning, Karou will also have you wishing you had half the knowledge and sharp wit she has under her belt.
You can read more about Karou in the last two books of the trilogy, Days of Blood & Starlight and Dreams of Gods & Monsters.
Above is a fan made trailer for the books.
