More than the previous books, this one has a bit of cheesy teenage drama but I am still enjoying the series and the fairy tale parallels.

(I'm definitely adding this series to my favorites shelf.)
(Major spoiler is the second italicized quote below)

"Scarlet..."

Oh, what a ship I enjoy. I surprisingly love Scarlet and Wolf's relationship because of the protectiveness they have. I haven't seen a ship that gave off a vibe like that in a while.

I thought I wouldn't really like Cress (the character). I have no idea why, I just assumed. I actually turned out to quite enjoy her and Thorne's relationship. I'm so glad I love these ships, AH!

"It's me, Kai. I'm Princess Selene."

I just have to read Winter now. Oh, yes!

Am I right in saying these books just keep getting better and better? I'm in love with ALL the characters but especially Cress, Thorne & Kai. Iko is 100% my spirit animal. God. I just loved this book.
