A review by alyram4
Blood Rose Rebellion by Rosalyn Eves
Did not finish book.
I almost never do this, but...
1.5/5 stars
Since about chapter 3 onward, I could not stand this book. The first 2 chapters were actually kinda promising, but unfortunately instead of taking off it just lagged behind. An excrutiatingly slow book, with bland characters, unfocused -and unneeded- romance, and some very weird dialogue. The only thing that remotely interested me in this was the actual revolution itself. Hell, even some of the magic was interesting, but just not enough to save it. I found this to just be unenjoyable, which is really such a shame since the premise held so much opportunity. This book could have been so much better, but it really fell flat for me. Sadly, I won't be continuing with this trilogy. This is definitely a lot it or hate it type of book. There really is no in-between.
