A Curse of Roses by Diana Pinguicha
4.0

Okay, I want to begin by stating the cover is stunning, but I don't love the title. It feels like it's a mixture of every popular YA title trend and I'm just not here for it.

HOWEVER, now that I have that negativity out of the way this is a wonderful book! It references some really interesting historical events from Portugal as well as references the culture - something I haven't seen in other books up until now. The characters are wonderful and feel relatable and human while still feeling unique. None of the story felt rushed and it felt consistent in the story telling.

I definitely loved this book and would recommend it for anyone looking for a fantasy standalone as their next read.
