It's an Urban Fantasy about faeries. You know, along the lines of Tithe, etc. And I love books like Tithe, but this one is set apart. The characterization is good, the main character, Ash(short for Aislinn) is a genuinely strong girl that can see fairies, knows all about them, and hides this fact from Tall Emo Ethereal Fairy Boy(Who, by the way, is not her love interest, and is also clearly flawed in his massive ego and flair for the dramatic), for most of the book. The villain is a tad cliche, very 'Cruella de Ville' esque, but the writing is pretty solid, and there's a follow-up, Ink Exchange, that just came out.
