[I received a copy of this book through Edelweiss.]Hmm, not sure about this one. It’s a retelling of ‘Romeo & Juliet’, in a city that is the last one standing while the rest of the world has been invaded by ‘zombies’, where three families share the power, and where the religious order of the Sisters...
Audiobook Narration 4 stars Book 1.4 stars Major negative for me: rehashing details over and over. The MC has some seriously crazy personality disorder going on. I love him, no I hate him, no I love that one, no I hate that one, I will never betray him, oh I need to betray him, I love my sister, I h...
This one is a unique read for me. I haven’t read anything like it. Apart from the beginning where it gave me the same feels I had with “The Wrath and the Dawn” and of course “Beauty and the Beast”, the rest of the story was quite a unique plot for me. I appreciated that it kept me guessing on what w...
From Goodreads, because I'm lazy and it's mostly a pretty good summary (I will point out the ways in which is it not afterwards): When Rachelle was fifteen, she was good - apprenticed to her aunt and in training to protect her village from dark magic.

Initial reaction: I feel about this book the same way I felt about "Cruel Beauty". Wonderful ideas, action, and intriguing characterization, but the execution of it feels a bit flawed. This book dragged for me much longer than I thought it would, sadly, though I liked parts of it.Full review:Full co...
Quick review for a quick read. As epic of a retelling of Beauty and the Beast as this was in places, I still feel pretty baffled (and more than a little gutted) by the transpiring of events towards the last quarter of the book and that ending. So I'm torn on my reaction. I thought the narrative capt...
I am once again the party pooper or just the one with horrid taste. This book didn’t thrill me. It didn’t start out that way. It started out fabulously, actually. I’m a sucker for Beauty and the Beast retellings and I loved the angry, revenge-filled heroine and her prickly interactions with the man...
4.5 Stars “..You always have to choose between the path of needles and the path of pins. When a dress is torn, you know, you can just pin it up, or you can take the time to sew it together. That's what it means. The quick and easy way or the painful way that works.” When Rachelle was fifteen she was...
