Daughter of Smoke and Bone / Laini Taylor / 418 pages

Karou is an art student in Prague.  She runs errands at odd hours for Brimstone.  She speaks many languages and her bright blue hair actually grows out of her head that color.  Brimstone has always taken care of her, but who is she?  She collects teeth for Brimstone, but doesn't know the purpose of her trades.  This is a modern fantasy about forbidden love, an ancient and epic battle between good and evil (but who is good and who evil?), and hope for a world remade.  (Are angels always good?)
