Disappointed Waited a long time for this book and there was much enthusiasm surrounding its release。 Not worth the angst and won't be finishing the series。 Disappointed Waited a long time for this book and there was much enthusiasm surrounding its release。 Not worth the angst and won't be finishing the series。 。。。more

If you wonder if Phoenix continues to be an asshole， the answer is yes。 YES he does。 Crown of Roses picks up right where Crown of Thorns left us hanging with Joss facing Saint， yes Saint。 The DEAD Saint。 Joss is still living at the Townsend mansion， still under the control of Phoenix。 She is hiding things she knows from him and he is obviously hiding stuff from her。 The push-pull is stronger than ever， and quite frankly I wanted to see more backbone from Joss！ It was infuriating， all the crap sh If you wonder if Phoenix continues to be an asshole， the answer is yes。 YES he does。 Crown of Roses picks up right where Crown of Thorns left us hanging with Joss facing Saint， yes Saint。 The DEAD Saint。 Joss is still living at the Townsend mansion， still under the control of Phoenix。 She is hiding things she knows from him and he is obviously hiding stuff from her。 The push-pull is stronger than ever， and quite frankly I wanted to see more backbone from Joss！ It was infuriating， all the crap she put up with between the bullying at the school and with Phoenix himself。 There is a lot of back and forth in this book， a lot of monologue/inner thinking （the POV is all from Joss） and it was， for lack of better words， quite annoying at times。 Again， as in the first book， the last part of the book completely made the entire book for me！ So many secrets and another twist！！ I honestly didn't see this one coming， but maybe you will。。。 but HOLY。。。。👀 。。。more

So 75% of them made me scream。 I was really screaming， I wanted to take something in my hands and bang Josslyn on the head。 Whatever he takes his head， pride whatever。 And then it happened。 I haven't really breathed since Margaret hit her in the nose。 I also did a celebratory dance with a reader in hand that finally。 That was one of the most beautiful moments in the book。 The second was when she woke up and the charged Phoenix was in her room。 He fought for her that was the moment I had been wai So 75% of them made me scream。 I was really screaming， I wanted to take something in my hands and bang Josslyn on the head。 Whatever he takes his head， pride whatever。 And then it happened。 I haven't really breathed since Margaret hit her in the nose。 I also did a celebratory dance with a reader in hand that finally。 That was one of the most beautiful moments in the book。 The second was when she woke up and the charged Phoenix was in her room。 He fought for her that was the moment I had been waiting for so long。 Then he screwed it up， but it's Phoenix what else to expect from him。 I want to kick him in the balls every second。 And then it happened again。 He took my breath away， leaving me speechless。 His apology and subsequent pages were amazing。 And at that moment， I thought that it finally paid off to wait so many months for this。 E。 M。 Snow I need more of this Phoenix。 And I'm dying for his gaze。 As deadly serious。 。。。more

Update/Review — November 24:I just finished this book。 I was hoping to change the rating after I’ve read the book but I think it’ll stay the same。 Yes I know I said I would wait for the third one but I’m not sure I can even read the third one。 I loved E。M。 Snow’s Angelview series， but I’m not sure about this one。 The amount of times I wanted to reach over my phone and shake Josslyn … too many。 Josslyn… girl， you’re an idiot。 “can’t trust anyone BUT I’ll trust the same people who tricked me into Update/Review — November 24:I just finished this book。 I was hoping to change the rating after I’ve read the book but I think it’ll stay the same。 Yes I know I said I would wait for the third one but I’m not sure I can even read the third one。 I loved E。M。 Snow’s Angelview series， but I’m not sure about this one。 The amount of times I wanted to reach over my phone and shake Josslyn … too many。 Josslyn… girl， you’re an idiot。 “can’t trust anyone BUT I’ll trust the same people who tricked me into this situation in the first place！” Usually when someone warns you （and I mean about 80% of the book was her being warned）， you don’t stay。 Idk how to feel about this especially because I don’t think I actually saw Josslyn and Phoenix’s relationship grow into something… like they barely communicated at all throughout the book or at least in a way that didn’t involve toxicity。 I don’t know how this relationship is going to go but right now it’s going nowhere。Oct。 29:When is this book coming out ？！ It’s starting to sound like a mythUpdate/Edit - November 1: this book has yet to release。Edit - November 4th: still no word on a release date and the author keeps saying “this week SOON，” but fails to tell us WHEN （it’s already Thursday btw）。Lesson learned: I will be waiting for the third book to release before reading this one。 At this point， I won’t be surprised if book 3’s release gets delayed by a year。Edit - November 7th （Sunday）: No word on a release date and nothing communicated by the author。 Where is this book？！？ 。。。more
