#Review #Giveaway of Rose & Thorn (Ash & Bramble #2) by Sarah Prineas

 
 
This beauty isn’t sleeping! Discover the true story of Sleeping Beauty in Sarah Prineas’s bold YA fairy-tale retelling filled with thrilling adventure and romance, perfect for fans of The Lunar Chronicles and The Girl of Fire & Thorns trilogy.

After the spell protecting her is destroyed, Rose seeks safety in the world outside the valley she had called home. She’s been kept hidden all her life to delay the three curses she was born with—curses that will put her into her own fairy tale and a century-long slumber. Accompanied by the handsome and mysterious Watcher, Griff, and his witty and warmhearted partner, Quirk, Rose tries to escape from the ties that bind her to her story. But will the path they take lead them to freedom, or will it bring them straight into the fairy tale they are trying to avoid?

Set in the world of Sarah Prineas’s Ash & Bramble fifty years later, Rose & Thorn is a powerful retelling of the classic Sleeping Beauty tale where the characters fight to find their own Happy Ever After.





Sarah Prineas lives in the midst of the corn in rural Iowa, where she wrangles dogs, cats, chickens, and goats, goes on lots of hikes, and finds time to write. She is married to a physics professor and has two kids.




This one kinda through me for a loop. And to fix my thoughts I ended up reading it again.  Although it was good I do think that book one was better.  This one felt a little off for me.  Where the first book weaved a spell of stories entwining.  This one left me wanting more.  It was ok but not as good as book one.  I really wish that this would have been set closer to the time frame of book one.  I really fell in love with those characters and would have loved to see them more.  


This although was a good book it wasnt a die hard read for me.
