i adore the writing style of the author. it's beautiful yet emotional, adding well to the overall tone and theme of the story. it's a great book and a great end to the story of The Belles.

however, i was a bit upset at the ending. i wish we could've seen more of the actual 'battle' between Sophia and her sister, how the kingdom initially reacted to the truth, etc. idk, just wish i could've gotten more out of the ending.

overall, a great read.

I don't know what I was expecting but it wasn't that.

Rémy x Camille ❤️❤️❤️
Also I don't know how to feel about Amber, like, I'm sad that she died, but she betrayed Camille

Trigger Warning: Coffins…

The first 80% is slower than the first installment of this trilogy. The last 20% picks up with rapid speed and give you the revenge you’ve been craving. I am hoping that it has now set us up for a happier ending in the third novel.

This sequel to The Belles was just as thrilling to read as The Hunger Games and The Maze Runner.
  
We follow Cameilla as she avenges her sisters, Princess Charlotte, the recently deceased Queen Celeste, and the people of Orlèans.
  
With the help of The Iron Ladies, Remy, and some Belles, Camellia trys to stop the ascension of Sophia, and restore the good name of the Belles and Princess Charlotte. 
  
I loved this series. The Belles introduced us to the fantasy world of Orlèans and the Belles, this sequel was paced a lot faster with less character development bar a couple of characters. We learn more about the land while trying to get back to the palace. And finally there's the teacup dragons, need I say more!
