I finally finished it and daaaannnggg....I have never felt so many emotions while reading a book. I was elated and frustrated and heart-broken and and raising my fist in the air because of it's awesomeness. This book.....how do I even begin? There were something I wish were different, but in the end - it's utterly brilliant. Complex and beautiful and FEELS! Courage of heart and destruction and pain and glory. Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
Full review to come (if I can stop gushing).
