This sequel is just as good as the first in the series. Adalyn Grace has me in a chokehold and I'm not even mad. I was a huge fan of the tv show "Ghost whisperer" when I was younger and this scratches that spot perfectly.The plot twists in Foxglove are amazing, and I genuinely didn't see them coming. Cannot wait for the next book in the series.

Usually I’m not a fan of multiple POV, but Blythe’s chapters carried the book. Blythe is a badass and I’m excited to see how her solo story unfolds in Wisteria.

I FUCKING KNEW IT!
Holy fucking shit Adalyn Grace keeps me stressed out and enthralled. The second entry to the Belladonna series saw Signa and Death facing their most dangerous enemy yet, Death's brother, Fate.
Fate thinks Signa is the reincarnated personification of Life - and all Signa wants is Death.
Through the entire book I had suspicions about Blythe's roll in this entry and OH MY GOD MY SUSPICIONS WERE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT.
Fate is an excellent Antagonist and I look forward to seeing more of him as a slightly annoyed ally.
Death remains sweet, sincere, morbid and so fucking sexy I can't verbalise it.
I too, would fuck the grim reaper.
I just love this series so much y'all.

this book was such a fun read! yes, i agree, it is a little bit slow, and yes, the writing or the storytelling can be a little bit messy or long-winded, with more focus on the characters than the mystery, the revelations and the plot twists are just so fun, are just so mindblowing and it makes me giggle and laugh because it's just that captivating.
i feel like, just like any other mystery book that covers fantasy, or actually, any mystery book for that matter, this book focuses a lot on the life that is surrounding the character for a purpose. everytime i read a mystery/thriller/crime book, they will always be focusing on other things besides the crime/mystery itself. so i dont rlly understand those who say the story writing is messy. it was an easy read, easy to follow, maybe just a little bit slow (felt like they could get to the answer much faster), and not so boring to read. plus the revelations and plot twists at the end just makes it so worth to read.
and i really, really , REALLY, love Blythe's character as i resonate with her so soundly. i love her fearlessness and her fierce outlook, and i love how she played Fate multiple times. and the plot twist?!!?!? just insaneee i knew there was something about Blythe.
Honestly one of the best books i've read so far. i dont hate the book and i dont understand the hate to this series. i don't like signa very much but i shouldnt hate the book just because of her, right? i felt that she could be a little bit stronger, like Blythe, but if there are too many of the same characters, then what's the point? anyway im so happy she and Death got their happy ending. and people have to remember that this is FANTASY, and if you don't like idea of Death being something a human can love, then dont read the book, okay! if you dont like goth, you dont like dark romance, you dont like the idea of toying with Death and Fate's name, and turning them somewhat mortal, then please dont read the book /series and skip it!!! read what you like and dont start hating on things just because you dont like a certain genre.
this book was quite well written, the plot twists are fantastic, the storyline is quite interesting, and the romance is also cute. characters are quite loveable despite their flaws, and if you do not mind the genre, then have a read !
