Product Description:
Unbeknownst to mortals, a power struggle is unfolding in a world of shadows and danger. After centuries of stability, the balance among the Faery Courts has altered, and Irial, ruler of the Dark Court, is battling to hold his rebellious and newly vulnerable fey together. If he fails, bloodshed and brutality will follow.
Seventeen-year-old Leslie knows nothing of faeries or their intrigues. When she is attracted to an eerily beautiful tattoo of eyes and wings, all she knows is that she has to have it, convinced it is a tangible symbol of changes she desperately craves for her own life.
The tattoo does bring changes—not the kind Leslie has dreamed of, but sinister, compelling changes that are more than symbolic. Those changes will bind Leslie and Irial together, drawing Leslie deeper and deeper into the faery world, unable to resist its allures, and helpless to withstand its perils. . . .

I really didn't enjoy this as much as I did the first book. After I spend several hundred pages getting used to one set of characters and starting to really love them, I had to switch gears and start on a whole different set.
As for the plot, it was good until about two thirds, three quarters of the way through. After that, things start getting really trippy, with a lot of purple prose and misleading, disjointed dialogue (which was probably intentional, but still not enjoyable). The ... Read More

Not quite a sequal to the wildly sucessful, WICKED LOVELY, this book follows a different girl's collision with the world of Fey. Now, I'm a guy and only because I have a friend in the field do I peruse this section of the book store...but that said...I gotta tell you guys, this is a good read for anybody.
Leslie, the lead female character, is friends with a young lady named Ash. Normal right? It would be if Ash wasn't the Summer Queen of the faery world's summer court. Add that to Leslie's ... Read More

The beginning was really good, on par with the previous work but then it took a bad turn. The story could have been so much more interesting but the writing was very flat. And the ending is rather abrupt and unsatisfying.

After reading the other reviews on here I wasn't sure that I would like this book, but I was pleasantly surprised. I read it in one sitting, I couldn't put it down. I'm familiar with faeries from the Laurell K Hamilton books, but this is much better. I feel that the author did a great job of submersing us in a world seamlessly without needing to explain every detail of faerie life. Unlike other reviewers, I thought this was a great stand alone book. The ending was well thought out and fit all of the ... Read More

Wicked Lovely, Melissa Marr's first novel, was on my Best of 2007 list and I've been very excited about the sequel, INK EXCHANGE. The storyline follows Aislinn's friend Leslie. Leslie is surrounded by a fog of secrets and unable to break through the fog because of something that happened to her while Aislinn was caught up in her own set of the tumultuous events in Wicked Lovely. The gulf between the two girls only grows wider as they find themselves unable to talk about how they have each been irrevocably ... Read More
