A review by teaand_tomes
Violet Made of Thorns by Gina Chen

fast-paced

5.0

I was completely captivated by "Violet Made of Thorns" and can't stop raving about it. Gina Chen's beautiful writing drew me into a world where traditional fairytale tropes are cleverly subverted. The complex relationship between Violet and Cyrus, with its intense angst and tension, kept me glued to the pages. Chen's fresh take on fantasy romance, featuring morally gray characters and unexpected twists, has easily made this book one of my new favorites. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a unique and enchanting read. 

I loved Emily Woo Zeller's narration of the audiobook! Her performance brought the characters to life, perfectly capturing Violet's complex emotions and Cyrus's dual nature.
