my favorite book series! maybe it's just bc i read it for the first time when i was young, but i love this series. it's fantasy, but takes place in our world (nyc) and is told through third person, which gives you a great look through many characters...

This book is the first in a trilogy that--without fail-- will always make me cry. A story full of love and longing, found family, and a boy who forever haunts the narrative. There is something so special about a book that can draw you in and weave su...
