Shadow Kin - M.J. Scott

Shadow Kin
by M.J. Scott

Blurb on the back of the book:
On one side, the Night World, rules by the Blood Lords and the Beast Kind. On the other, the elusive Fae and the humans, protected by their steadfast mages...

Born a wraith, Lily is a shadow who slips between worlds. Brought up by a Blood Lord and raised to be his assassin, she is little more than a slave. But when Lily meets her match in target Simon DuCaine, the unlikely bond that develops between them threatens to disrupt an already stretched peace in a city on the verge of being torn apart...

So instead of studying for an exam, I read this in a mattter of six hours! The characters each have their own story to tell and it's a change in pace of what I'm used to reading. The mystery behind wraiths are quite fascinating and I don't regret buying this book for one second. I would love to write more however, it's time I got back to reading my TextBook on Extemporaneous Compounding!

Oh how I wish I could disappear into the shadow like Lily!

Doesn't this cover look absolutely gorgeous?!

It's been the longest time.

I realize I haven't blogged as much as I've wanted to. There's a lot of stuff that I haven't gotten around to doing. I want to blame it on time but perhaps I'm just lazy. That's gotta be it. Lazy.

And also, I have no idea what to say while I am in a race against time to study for an exam on Monday in addition to two quizzes and perhaps a lab. What have I become? How could I let my procrastination get so far?

I have come to despise the person that I am and I wish I knew what to do to change that. I need time but time is not given out like that. All I ever used to do was dream and now I feel unaccomplished because these dreams, these goals seem so far away.
