Lush, gorgeous and involving. This is a faery tale that manages to be both classical and modern at the same time. The world-building is excellent, the dialogue brilliantly well-done and the story arc satisfying. I love crows in the real world, and Taylor's anthropomorphized crows delighted me. There's not the sexy, dangerous undercurrent that I adored in Lips Touch: Three Times, but it would be out of place in this book, which has plenty of non-sexy danger and is aimed at a slightly younger audience, I think.Highly recommended.
