some of it is very well written and some of it i was a bit bored by…i think she perfectly articulated how it feels to be a brown woman trying her best in a world where white women are applauded for bare minimum. her relationship with the man she wants to be with is very similar to my best friend’s current relationship, which makes me sad. i hope she knows that she deserves better.

everyone will tell you that alice in wonderland lives in my head rent free and i am a TYRANT when it comes to  prequels/sequels/retellings because they have to be perfect. and that’s what this was. i feel absolutely insane…you can tell this was such a passion project for marissa meyers because every little detail is thought out, every reference is layered and deserved. catherine’s character arc is so masterfully crafted and jest is so perfectly charming. and on top of it all, it’s beautifully written and so so tragic. the painted roses and the double entendre prophecy and Hatta’s pocketwatch. i simply cannot praise this book enough and i will be thinking about it until i die.
