Days of Blood and Starlight (Daughter of Smoke and Bone #2)
by Laini Taylor
Goodreads Blurb: Once upon a time, an
angel and a devil fell in love and dared to imagine a world free of bloodshed
and war.
This is not that world.
Art student and monster's apprentice Karou finally has the answers she has always sought. She knows who she is—and what she is. But with this knowledge comes another truth she would give anything to undo: She loved the enemy and he betrayed her, and a world suffered for it.
In this stunning sequel to the highly acclaimed Daughter of Smoke & Bone, Karou must decide how far she'll go to avenge her people. Filled with heartbreak and beauty, secrets and impossible choices, Days of Blood & Starlight finds Karou and Akiva on opposing sides as an age-old war stirs back to life.
While Karou and her allies build a monstrous army in a land of dust and starlight, Akiva wages a different sort of battle: a battle for redemption. For hope.
But can any hope be salvaged from the ashes of their broken dream?

My thoughts: Karou finally knows the truth that has
been kept from her her entire life. Karou ad Akiva are each fighting their
battles in the middle of the war and it is at this point in the story that I
ship them. I do, I ship them, I don’t know how they are going to make it work
but I want them together! Akiva has become someone I care about in the story
compared to book 1 where I wanted him to fly home and go way. Karou just gets
deeper and deeper into the monster world and I’m not sure if she can make it
out.
