I recently read and intensely enjoyed Laini Taylor's "Daughter of Smoke and Bone".
I have since been directed to a review which complains about the book being about the thing that it's about. So, uh, if you don't like the thing that it is (fantasy with a romance subplot and apparently it's for YA audiences although I do not know how anyone is supposed to determine that about a book) you might not like it.
There was a recent discussion considering the idea of a monthly Book (later expanded to movies, links, etc) thread. The poll was pretty unanimous that this was A Good Idea (tm). The past two threads have had a decent amount of activity, so let's keep going.
