Ethan is a prequel novella to the Brightest Kind of Darkness series and a great addition to this wonderful series!I really love Ethan as a character.  He is truly a tortured character but somehow manages to rise about that and be a rather perfect Book Boyfriend!  He is smart and strong, brave and compassionate.  It is hard to come away from this look at Ethan and not feel for him.Although this is a prequel and set in the weeks leading up to Book 1, I would recommend reading this after Book 1.  The author states that it can be read before or after, and I feel like it adds a layer to a character we already know when reading it after.  It really helps you understand the character that you meet in Brightest Kind of Darkness.Things to love about Ethan...--Ethan as a person.  He is truly an interesting character, tortured but not emo... which I hate.--The details.  I read this after BKoD, but I loved the details between Ethan and BKoD, tying them together in a slightly different way, from a slightly different perspective than in BKoD.My recommendation:  A definite must read .for the series, which I also recommend.  A great series and Ethan is a great addition to it.
