The second facinating part is how the human culture "accepts" aliens among them. Ok, they have human eyes (and for me, personally, that could also have been omitted), but aside from that they are scary, I mean something-that-crawled-out-of-your-nightmares scary. The yare BUGS, yes, real life sized alien bugs with chitin and monstrous bodies. They are not perfect, Hollywood actor-lookalikes over whom every girl. This book did nothing truly mindblowing, but it were the many little things that came together so perfectly, that I could not but love this book.The first perfect little detail is that the aliens in this book are not humanoids. Star crossed, the bland teenage drama being one of them. We've all seen and heard of them and there are at least 10 TV series running right now with a similiar theme. And I am not one of those people who can say something like that about just any book, perhaps 1-3 a year.So what was in this book that made it the best book of 2014 for me until now? At first glancy it is a simple alien romance story. Review 1: This book was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! It was brilliant, mindblowing and utterly captivating.
