Or,
Summer read
Sleep stealer

Because you wanted to keep reading, or because it gave you scary dreams?

I couldn't put it down. I had to finish it. So, I read late into the night.
Shallow epic.Not to say I didn't like it. Can't we extend these to 144 characters?
It's not a review, but it does have two words in it:Yeine was doing all right, til she
Drove to a city of white
It's there that she found
To her past she was bound
Now she's fucking the God of the night
Nice, limerick!Though the "til she" should be one line down, no?

Yes.
I once wrote a lim'rick whose meter
Could not be conveyed to the reader
To help them to see
I moved the "til she"
But that merely proved a misleader

I also salute aldenoneil's limmerick.
@aldenoneil: No worries, Mom was an English teacher.There once was a Lord of the Night,
Whose mind, it wasn't quite right.
Daylight power adjourns,
And at nightime returns,
But in bed all his moves are quite ... (ahem) ... quite.
Interestingly disappointing
Whiny godsex.Well, OK, I had to invent one of the words, but I think it works.
(girls love) bad boys
Uncompelling apotheosis.
Immanentized Eschaton(Hail Eris)
As Leo Laporte would say:Bodice ripper.
Whiny gods.As an excuse I want to say that I try not to read the other two-words reviews so that I'm not influenced. The downside is that I always come up with something exactly like or really close to someone else's idea.
Alternate-reality Endless
These are hilarious, but I can't say they make me want to read the book.
I just finished this the other day.lacking suspense
