They are very different from what I'm used to. I read them because they were reccomended to me, and surprisingly I found myself liking them.

Looking forward to see how the trilogy ends.

I don't think its that surprising, they have angels and demons but I do think Taylor pulls that off much better than most other books I've read with them.

I also love the way she writes, its very evocative.

Yeah. true. So it does have paranormal, but I feel its also a touch of fantasy.

The first was kind of two books, one of which was straight fantasy. But I'd say the second was a blend throughout which I enjoyed better.

I love this series so much. It's such a masterpiece. Lani is truly talented.. she has an amazing way with words.

I'd say the first one was Urban Fantasy/Paranormal and the second had a very fantasy/High fantasy feel to it but I loved them both so much, especially the second. I can't wait to see how the series is going to wrap up, and I have no doubt it will be fantastic.

Well with the first I'd say it was fantasy with Madrigal, so in the second it was blended more and never quite reached high fantasy.

I do agree about Taylor's writing, though!
