There is soooo much to work with and Violet and Cyrus' story is just beginning.įinal thoughts: if my house was burning down and I could only grab one book to save, it would be this one."Sometimes you hate someone so much, you fall in love." I don't know if I can live without reading the sequel NOW. "My curse, my ruin, my Violet-my heart is yours. I think it's because I am so much like her that I immediately connected to her character. She embodies self-confidence and strength. They need each other because they see who they are without pretenses. They love each other because of their flaws. Isn't it true that many people enjoy love/hate or enemies to lovers so much is because it's amazing to see someone fall for another person, flaws and all. If you truly love enemy to lovers, you will devour this chemistry. That's all I can say about it without drooling on my keyboard. The romance was vicious with lust on both ends burning the other alive. I won't get too deep into this because I want to keep it spoiler-free, but I did not expect that ending! There are some familiar magic systems, but what I loved about this was the threat of the Fairylands and the horrifying monsters created from humans. "I am the worst thing in Cyrus's life and nothing has tasted sweeter." But her own self-serving plans go awry when her feelings for Cyrus take a very sharp yet sexy turn. Violet's prophecy about Cyrus and his inevitable death isn't one she can just skip across, so when the king asks her to lie about Cyrus's intended bride, she goes along with it, if only to appease him and keep her place in the palace. What is about brooding, angry boys that just.UGH I wanted to smooth away that scowl every time he came on the page. Let me sneak in here with a quick thought about Cyrus. But her standing in the king's favor is rocky since Prince Cyrus seemingly hates her ever-living guts despite the fact that she once saved his life. She's the court's official seer-able to see premonitions of people's futures. When I read comp titles such as Cruel Prince and Serpent and Dove, I know I'm getting some angsty romance and this did not disappoint. I just took a long exhale because buckle it, kiddies! If you haven't seen it, go now! Whatever editions of this book release you know I will have them all. Violet Made of Thorns shifts its gaze to the books: hold my beer.Ī quick note before I dive into this novel of a review: I would die for this cover. All other hate-to-love/enemies-to-lovers books: YOU LOOOOOVE ME!!!!
