Poison Princess by Kresley Cole
5.0
SPECTACULAR, GRIPPING AND BREATHTAKING!
That was a genius idea to mix dystopia with Tarot, and even a greater idea to make cards characters!
The plot was very exciting and eventful with rather good pacing. I can't say that I was completely satisfied with characters, but the uniqueness of the book and the masterfulness of writing compensates for it. The prologue was very creepy, and the book in general is rather dark, even the romance is bumpy and difficult, so if you expect sweetness, softness, easy reading - that's not your book. The cliffhanger is rather merciless, so to say that I'm looking forward to the sequel is quite an undersatement!
Compliments to the author, that she has created such a different book from her IAD series - it's not easy not to repeat yourself at least in some small details, and believe me, Poison Princess is nothing like IAD, or any other books for that matter.
