Violet Made of Thorns: The darkly enchanting New York Times bestselling fantasy debut

Product Information

A few problems: one, she hates Prince Cyrus, and the feeling is mutual. Two, the king is watching her every move. And three, she might have lied in her last prophecy about the prince finding true love. Perfect for the fairytale reader who has always wanted the heroine to grow sharp teeth and bite Prince Charming - Chloe Gong, #1 New York Times bestselling author of These Violent Delights Before we start, how are you all doing? I hope you had a wonderful weekend and got some reading and relaxing done.

It reads like a Cruel Prince fanfiction and is basically a retelling of all the princess stories I used to swoon over when I was a kid. Cyrus Lydine : Le prince d'Auveny et future roi Cyrus fût fiancé a Raya la cheffe des Balicans mais il découvrit que celle qu'il pensait être Raya était en fait Nadyia . il a eu une liaison avec Violet en lui disant l'aimer depuis toujours ( même si cette dernière n'était pas très convaincue au début ) . on l'accuse aussi d'avoir eu une relation avec Dante )

violet is one of the best protagonists i have read about till date. she is sharp tongued, unapologetic, very prideful, and somewhat selfish. that is why i loved her so much. i need more books with not-perfect mc's- the ones who aren't a perfect balance, but the ones who have too much of something and too little of another. and it is safe to say i'm a simp for violet lune. An old prophecy states that unless Cyrus gets married, terrible things will happen. So far, he's refused to do his duty - until his father decides to get involved. Using Violet, his pet Seer, the king arranges Cyrus's marriage to a mysterious noblewoman named Raya. But Raya isn't what she seems, and Violet and Cyrus's own hostility can't stop them from working to uncover what's going on. Violet Made of Thorns is a fairy tale through and through. A fairy tale with a twist where we basically get a story of a morally grey character who might curse the kingdom or might not. And in this case, we do not really know until the end. The prince was a mediocre character. His character was quite inconsistent at times but otherwise, he was quite alright. sorry if this review is more tired and less energized than my usual, I’m feeling the stresses of school 😅 much love to all of you!!

Rep: East Asian-coded protagonist, bisexual brown side character, lesbian side character; (Chinese-American author) I am excited for the next book in this duology and also to see what other book ideas Gina Chen will come up with. One of the things that really pleased me was the plot. It was very well thought out from the beginning till almost the end of the book. It surprised me at times too, which was great because I hate predictable plots LOL. The romance between violet- the seer, and Cyrus- the prince was also great and I loved how they hated each other and still had casual endeavours with one another. PDF / EPUB File Name: Violet_made_of_Thorns_-_Gina_Chen.pdf, Violet_made_of_Thorns_-_Gina_Chen.epub I will have to confess that I didn't expect to like this book, but Gina Chen nailed the delivery she promised, and I couldn't be more surprised at how I adored it. Violet Made of Thorns is an enchanting book with a refreshing take on the sub-genre of dark fairytales that mildly reminds me of The Cruel Prince.The main character isn't always likeable, but she's different than our usual YA heroines, and she has her moments. Debut author Chen has a winner here, with a rough-around-the-edges protagonist that readers will eventually root for despite her thorns." Booklist
