My Thoughts: I really had no idea what this was about when I first heard of it. Than it got more and more raves all over the blog-sphere so I decided to check it out! Had the hardcover edition! I have a few friends who didn't like it and a few who did so I just had to read it to see what my opinion would be. I did enjoy it and finished it within a few days. We meet Meridian (what a cool name) and I instantly liked her personality. She is a little bit confused on the whole idea that she could be a Fenestra. But she accepts it pretty rationally. She doesn't jump up and down mad that she has to leave her family, she is pretty mature about it. She goes off to live with her Great Aunt's house. We learn about Tens (not the first time I've heard this name) and his back-story along with the Aternocti's story. The chapters quietly unfold theirselfs and we learn why it is happening to her and why she is thrown into the middle of it. I liked the whole concept of the window. Won't give too many spoilers away. Was very interesting!

Overall: I liked it and finished it within a few days. A lot of people seem to want this book so I'm sure it will continue to circulate the blogs! If you get the chance to read it, please do. This is one of those books I actually took the dustjacket off to read because I didn't want to ruin it. Overall, quick fun read.
