Bring Me Their Hearts

Zera is a 19 year old Heartless. This means she has no heart in her chest and can only be killed if her witch shatters her heart or if her witch is killed. In addition a constant hunger for violence haunts her mind. Though there is hope for her. Her witch promissed to return her heart and the heart of 2 other children if Zera manages to get the heart, the organ, of the crown prince. And thous begins Zera's scheming. A beautifully crafted story, with round characters (characters whose motivations are shown and well-founded). I highly recommend giving this book a try if you enjoy romances with a fantasy background. Although I do want to stress that while some fantasy aspects are story relevant (e.g. the main character being a Heartless), it is mostly a background for the human connections Zera forms with the people around her, romantic and platonic.
