There were moments I gasped, put the book down, closed my eyes and said the words out loud.
The first few chapters hit me hard and I instantly knew it was an original and uniquely bewitching story. The first impression that it gave me was so damn appealing and strong that there was no slowing down or turning back. It took me on a roller coaster ride, which needless to say was mind boggling. Fast, reckless, magical, unpredictable, and oh so brilliant in all aspects. There are numerous instances that prove that Taylor has let her imagination run far and high, tapping into ideas that are absolutely top-notch. Imagination has gotten into numerous minute details of this story.
And being wrapped up with the right choice of words they have come out with flying colors. It is a mysterious story that revolves around a 17 year old girl Karou.
At first she appears like a normal teen, who studies art at Prague, has a close friend Zuzana and a stalking ex-boyfriend Kazimir. But later, as the story progresses and her secret errands come to light we get to know that she is different, being raised by four Chimaeras. Her art is mostly inspired by the monster-like creatures she has known for real.
Now for the question who are Chimaeras, they are a community we are not familiar with. Having some of their physical characteristics like animals and birds, and some like humans, they are residents of a completely different world, which even if not ours feels just as real. The head of her so called Chimaera family, Brimstone is a fatherly figure for Karou and is the earliest memory of her childhood. He is a sorcerer of sorts and occasionally sends her on teeth-collecting errands to far off places round the world through magic portals. And what do they do with those jars of teeth?
On one such errand fate takes a turn and things go terribly wrong.
She is taken aback by the things she discovers and feels betrayed by Brimstone for keeping her in the dark. But much to her dismay, she does not get an explanation. The portals are burnt by Angels to hinder the work of the devils or Chimaeras. And in the age old war between the devils and angels, naive Karou becomes the victim and gets stranded in the world of humans.
Then on, the flight of fantasy gets quite serious and all humor is left at bay. Behind his longing and mutual attraction for Karou lies a story untold. Its a story of love and war. Will the age old war between the Seraphims and the Chimaeras destroy the love of Karou and Akiva? Or will they be able to keep their love unscathed? Read the book and enjoy the magical journey.

Still, as in the graves. So what if life is slipping away? Your desperate hold on life is strangling it anyway. Like a loud church bell sometimes or sweet mumbles of chime, making it sound sinister and bizarre. Despite the oxygen feeder choking your throat. So what if poking needles and entangled saline pipes are in a mess, you got a handful of nights to stay peacefully afloat. So when the fight gets tough, come over my friend into the renowned realm of sedatives.

One who knows she will have her share of storms, and yet nurses calmness on the surface and within. She ran along the woods soaking in glitters of sunshine filtered through the trees.
She knew she was magic incarnate. Fiercely independent, passionate and free. An embodiment of elation and peace.
