Found it really hard to write this review through my tears, but let's goooo. 

I love this series in a way that cannot be verbalise, and Wisteria was the absolutely perfect ending to the Belladonna trilogy. 

This had twists and turns like I couldn't believe and threw me for a loop multiple times, as the entire series has so far, but god damn, the author really pulled out the hurt on this last one.

The final handful of chapters had me weeping, like inconsable tears, and borderline screaming, and yet I am so, so happy with how it ended.

Perfection! I devoured this story. The perfect enemies to lovers romance, brought to life by Adalyn Grace’s beautiful writing and world building 

These three books together are everything and I cannot wait to reread and get immersed in this world all over again

"It's said that the wisteria vine is a symbol of immortality." The opening line captures the essence of this book. Wisteria concludes the Belladonna trilogy, and everything truly comes full circle. I would like to learn more about Rima Farrow, and maybe that will come in time. Blythe has a fire about her that keeps the book exciting even when it feels as if nothing much is happening. The banter between her and Aris is perfect - comedic, sweet, and hateful with passion. I loved experiencing their story and Blythe learning her true identity. Signa and Sylas take a backseat to the central story this time, but they still play crucial roles in Blythe's life and the final outcome. Part 4 is so heartbreaking that I cried and contains an epilogue that feels like a fairy tale. How a book that starts with a wedding can shatter a heart is mind-blowing. Adalyn Grace knew exactly what she was doing.

Gothic paranormal romance with a lemon twist of mystery. This series is such a delight. This book has Sylas and Signa in the backseat and our focus on Blythe and her husband Fate. Forced proximity trope, foes to lovers, all the good stuff we love to see.
