This book was good not great. It was fairly well written. Very descriptive, decent character development, and after I think about it - a lot did happen. I was just bored by this for the most part. There were definitely some really good moments where I didn't want to put it down. Overall, I think it was just sort of boring. Nothing really happened. There was a lot of predictability and I didn't find Sira to be an amazing character that I wanted to know more about. I think I was just let down -all reviews made it seem like the AMAZING book of the year. Don't avoid this book, I would just say don't go out of your way to read it.
This was a fabulously fun read, if you can stand the formulaic bullshit. The movie looks to be rather gruesome...
Dude! You have got to read this... OK, so the whole steampunk thing was newish to me, and I absolutely loved it. This is like my 2nd book that is a steampunk type, and there's just something about the images that I come up with while I'm reading, that makes ecstatic about the book. It reminds me of one of my favorite TV shows, but instead of it being in the future with cowboyish feel, it's the whole old school, and crazy machines and flying ships, and ships, and pirates, and I'm intentionally rambling here. So there really is everything I said and more. There are so many mysterious people in this book, that you don't really learn too much about them until later, but you sort of get a sense about them. DUDE what is Yasmeen? I mean really, she's effing awesome. Really, I like she could get her own book. SHE'S LIKE A EFFING NINJA! And the mom, dude could you imagine growing up knowing that your mother did that... (my page 40 freak out, it was one of the biggest shocking moments in a book, that I've read, in a long time.) Hello, Skarsdale, he's interesting too. I would like to read more about him. He reminds me of another character, but I can't put my finger on it. He's constantly drunk, but very observant and always aware of whats going on. So The Iron Duke, and Mina have that whole they meet, they resist, conflict, they're together thing that all romances have. I enjoyed this books as a whole more because of everything else that happened. I was going to run down about a lot of what happened, but i decided against that. Let's just say that there is CONSTANTLY some sort of conflict going on. Even til the last few pages. Whether is a romantic conflict, or someone just got murdered, there is always something going on. A MUST READ FOR SURE!!
