Erika (17789 KP) rated The Thorn and the Blossom in Books
Nov 21, 2018
I picked up this book solely for the unique binding; I happen to be a bookbinder (around intermediate level, I've made some cool stuff), and I loved the accordion binding. This book isn't long enough to be considered a novel, it's definitely a novella. It's the same story, from two different viewpoints, which I loved. However, the worst part is that it was only a novella, I could have read a long novel about the story and the characters.

I realize this novella is an important part of the series, but I found myself bored and wanting to skip it altogether. This, of course, is my own fault and not Victoria's - the correspondence was so real.

Dana (24 KP) rated Neferet's Curse (House of Night Novellas, #3) in Books
Mar 23, 2018
This delved into the interesting, yet tragic back story of Neferet from the House of Night. While we who have read the series know she is no saint, we can understand where that hatred inside her came from. I thought this novella was intriguing because it painted Neferet, formerly known as Emily, in a different light than what we have seen before. I also very much enjoyed the symbolism of the fountain and how that was a foreshadowing of what was to come later in her life. Great job on this novella!
