Before anything else i must say that i laughed quite a lot reading it. So we get a look inside Zuzana and Mik's lives. Believe me they are as awesome as they were in the novels. Another thing i must add is that this novella is about beginning of Zuzana and Mik's relationship so its cheesy. But not the kind of cheesy that gags you and makes you roll your eyes so much that they hurt.I absolutely adored them.In Daughter of Smoke and Bone and the sequels they were providing the essential sweetness to the story but i didn't fall in love with them. However, this novella made me love Zuzana so much that if Laini Taylor writes a whole series about them i would gladly read it. Absolutely riveting! I'd been saving this Daughter of Smoke and Bone novella for a rainy day, and going back for my final (and most intense) term of high school definitely constitutes as a rainy day. And it was everything I'd hoped it would be. The story follows Zuzanna and Mik, a couple of characters from the trilogy, and how they first met. The writing is spectacular and the story is adorable. I couldn't wipe the grin from my face during some parts of it. Not to mention the happy tears. O, how strangely fiction affects me. This is a must-read if you enjoyed the Daughter of Smoke and Bone books (this novella occurs at some time during the first book, I believe). It was short and sweet, and it's a new go-to for when I'm feeling sad.

Mik and Zuzana are one of my favourite couples in anything ever. This novella is perfect.
