Review:
Okay I loved the first book beyond reason it is one of the first books that I started to read that made me want to continue to read as much as I do now
So when I found out that the first book would have a series I was like oh hell no ! Now I HAVE TO WAIT!?
And so I did! Then the White Rose came out and I FINALLY GOT THE BOOK AND READ IT ANDDDD
Boy was I dissapointed. It just kinda lulled on for the first 2/3rds of the book and I was getting so freaking fed up with Violet being so freaking annoying about Raven.
Yes she is your bestest friend.
Yes she means the world to you
But it went to these certain lengths that were just... well weird for me.
Maybe I am dead on the inside and would act the way she did, freaking the fudge out every second of the day for Raven but they... THAT
Then there is Ash, to be honest there is something about Ash that irritates me to no end.
I dont trust him. I dont know if it is just me but I just get so annoyed with every Ash scene! And he could be considered cute in some scenes but I simply don't.
Towards the end of the book, stuff started to pick up a bit and made the book redeemable and made it possible for me to finish it, considering that shit is starting to hit the fan, it makes for things to get more exciting in the books.
Recommend it?
If you read the first book,... just know this one isnt as great as the first one.
