The Rose and the Dagger by Renee Ahdieh
Series: The Wrath and the Dawn #2
Genre: Young Adult, Fantasy
Pages: 416 pages
I'm starting to feel a bit like the grinch during this countdown. I don't mean to be but you guys, these are supposed to be the best 20 of a year. I had high expectations. So I loooovvvveeeddd The Wrath and the Dawn, book 1 this series but that's not the book in this countdown. The Rose and the Dagger was good and I would recommend this series, but it was a let down compared to the previous book. The pacing was uneven and the plot was a bit all over the place. There was a nice twist at the end which I liked but ultimately, I just missed The Wrath and the Dawn. I'm such a sucker for a sweet romance. There were some better reads on this list.
I agree that this book was not as strong or addicting as The Wrath and the Dawn which was such a disappointment!
