One Cursed Rose by Rebecca Zanetti
3.25
challenging dark emotional mysterious tense medium-paced

Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes

I think this book suffered from some over-editing. This world seems so interesting and I wish there wasn’t more explanation about the crystal origins, how they get their power, and the strengths of each stone. 
I am sad that Alana and Thorn do not get a second book focusing on them, because we just did not get enough of them in this book.
