The Rose and the Dagger

The Rose and the Dagger

I didn't know what I was expecting but it wasn't this. I was quite disappointed in this book. 

Because:

1. There were not as many romance as I would like.

2. The curse was broken almost too easily and it sounded fake to me. 

3. The ending was sweet but I guess I expected more after the first book. It seems like the author may have rushed the ending but I don't know.

What I do like about this book is how well the characters evolved and became stronger. They each have their own voice that is very different and it takes a lot for a writer to develop such complete characters whiles joggling between them when writing. I also love how the story somehow teaches us to forgive but never forget and how to be selfless when it comes to love ones. 

I don't want to give anything away but the story was so well built in the first book that I expected more dramatic ending. But, of course, I do have a weird taste in mystery, thriller, and drama. I want them to either go overboard or to never surface on shore. 

It was a good and easy read. Would definitely recommend it if you loved the Court of Thorns and Roses series because they both revolved around the story of Beauty and the Beast.
