Crimson Bound by Rosamund Hodge
4.0
*applauds*
I thought this was an okay book for the first couple hundred pages, but I knew it in my soul that this would be one of those books where you may not love it at first but everything would come together in the end in a satisfying way. And it did not disappoint!
The only reason that I did not mark this a 5/5 stars is because of the romance. Honestly, that was such a tiny portion of the book that it did not at all merit being the tagline or the main focus of the summary. Their relationship felt very slow-burn at first, which I was very excited about, but then, out of the blue, they were both saying they were in love. I liked them as a couple, but I really feel like it would have been better if it had remained consistent with the slow-burn.
That is seriously the only complaint I have about this book, and I'm also planning to read Cruel Beauty soon because of how great this was. (Yes, I read them in the wrong order. No, it did not impact my enjoyment of this novel.)
Highly, highly recommend.
