A Dream So Wicked by Tessonja Odette
5.0
Like all of Tessonja Odette's books, I absolutely ADORED this one!
At first, it was a bit of a slower start for me as sleeping beauty wasn't my favorite story growing up unlike the retelling topics of her previous books. Once I got a few chapters in though I couldn't put it down or stop thinking about it!
I loved the characters and how well rounded they are, and cannot get over Thorne and his passion for baking, everytime he was in the kitchen I just smiled and wanted to reread the chapters. Towards the last 2/3rds of the book I even cried a few times! The topics of familial expectations and the desire to be loved hit close to home, and the way it was expressed in this book really touched me.
I can't wait to see if these two pop up in future books, and I am interested to get to know Monty more in future books as well!
*I did receive this book as an ARC, but that in no way impacts my review. Thank you for the honor of getting to read this lovely story early!
