I really enjoyed Belladonna and hoped for more of the same. This book was pleasant but didn’t pack the punch the first one did. I enjoyed getting to know Blythe and seeing her snd Fate grow was enjoyable. The final chapters will lead on nicely to the next book which I look forward to reading.

“Foxglove” draggggged! It wasn’t until the last three or so hours of the audiobook that things started picking up and getting interesting. Definitely suffers from Second Book Syndrome—just a way to push the plot from Book 1 to Book 3 for the conclusion.

While I could guess where the story was going to end I very much enjoyed the journey there. I can’t wait to learn more about Life Death and Fate and how Signa fits in with all of that. Blythe gets some POVs too and I enjoyed them

I would give this 10 stars if I could! Big loves. I didn’t think this would be better than the first book, Belladonna, but it absolutely positively was!! 10/10

OMG I LOVE LOVE LOVE the characters, the book, the story line EVERY.THING. Like DEATH AND SIGNA sdfajfenfkfnafn I LOVE THEM SO MUCH and they make me so happy and they're so happy!! Also I somehow did NOT think of the ending although it was low key obvious but I was so devastated by Death and Signa that I did not notice! Idk if it was shown in the tapestries but also they already had the connection at the statue like OMG it was so obvious but I was too into it to tell. I literally CAN'T WAIT for Wisteria to come out like AHHHHHH! Fate was kind of a jerk in here but I guess we'll see what happens to him in the next book :) I really liked how the story played out in the end, like how everything unfolded, the murderer was quite unexpected and the reason behind it, I was sad for what happened and also the clues we saw earlier all made sense at the end. I was so immersed into the story and the characters and I'm glad that Blythe and Signa made it through to the end :) I really liked seeing the ghosts in Foxglove and their different stories I think they, especially Amira, helped Signa a lot with her loneliness when she couldn't see Death.
