Firelight by Sophie Jordan

Sophie Jordan's Firelight is the amazing start of the trilogy. Jacinda is part of the draki community but her mother and sister don't feel like they belong because they aren't draki. After Jacinda makes a big mistake and risks the safety of the community, her mother forces them to leave the safe area. Jacinda fights to preserve her draki but what if her draki only feels alive when she's with Will? Will is the charming hunter whose family hunts her kind. How much will she sacrifice for love?

The overall plot is overused but the small details made it more original. The ending was a cliff hanger so there was no doubt that I would read the second book. The idea behind this book was well thought. The action was best in the beginning and the end while the middle of the book was mainly romance. The book is overall a great blend of various genres which make a good fit for almost everyone. Easy to follow and hard to put down read.

The characters were interesting but didn't stand out much. Tamra and her mother seemed immature. Jacinda was fairly interesting but Will was more interesting after Jacinda learned that he wasn't much like his family. Cassian was alright but didn't develop much as a character. All characters were fine but failed to make lasting impressions except Jacinda and Will.
