Fantastic! Perfect! Please give me more with these characters!

I loved every second of this book. Lia and Ruven were such interesting characters to follow. Just their odd dynamic and messed up actions were hard to ignore or resist. I loved how dark and morbid this story went and how flawed every person involved showed themselves to be. This story showed the horrors and desperation that can come as a result of yearning for love and acceptance.

Previously I had read Cruel Beauty from this author. And while I enjoyed it, this one was even better. I would highly recommend people pick this one up. Even if you are hesitant about it being a Sleeping Beauty retelling, it takes it to new dimensions.

The style felt a little young. The world is surely intriguing but I didn't quite feel the spark with this one. Might be a better fit for readers who tend to prefer younger YA.
