Okay, hokey title...I really, really liked this book - it's just so different! I love the spider-ness!! Even though it's so different and takes a great deal of suspension of disbelief.The characters were great! Despite initial attractions and fears, they had the time to get to know each other - and for us to get to know them, which I really enjoyed. The secondary characters were interesting as well, and I imagined all sorts of new stories and connections - I can't wait for the next book!The plot was pretty good, though sometimes I felt a little confusion. Things seemed to jump crazily at times; like there were almost too many plot lines going at once. Mostly I think that the writing was just a little choppy - but easy to disregard. I feel like the author's writing will just get better and better with each book, so it doesn't bother me.I was completely taken in by the story and people, and the whole IDEA - spider people! - is just so interesting.This is my first book by Hailey Edwards, but I will search out more!
