I seriously loved this book. The writing, the characters...just everything.

I won't do a recap of the book because if you haven't read this yet, you should just go do it right now. Really.

This book is told from the different point of views of Lucy and Ed/Shadow and it works really well. It was important to see what was happening from each person's viewpoint and actually made me become more invested in each of the characters. I love that Lucy says embarrassing things (and calls herself out on it) and that Ed sees (and appreciates) her uniqueness. It was also nice to be able to look into Leo's head with the poems that were included as his POV.

Everything takes place over the course of one night and although it was a quick read, it in no way felt rushed. The conversations between Ed and Lucy were meaningful and are what should have happened on their first date. There were so many great quotes that had me either laughing ("I don't like the word nipple.") or all tingly ("There was no skin on my voice and she heard the bones in my words.").

Great book and I will be adding more books by Cath Crowley to my list of books to read.
