A review by aurelyarose
The Everlasting Rose by Dhonielle Clayton

It has been my observation that most sequels on GoodReads have a higher rating than the first book in a series. I have attributed this to the fact that people who read the second book probably loved the first one, so it weeds out all the people who the series wasn't for.

While it is only about .3 points, I believe it is worth pointing out this book is not rated higher than the first. As someone who acknowledges how difficult writing is, holy moly did something go wrong with this book. Maybe it was just too rushed? The little tag on this book is "The Revolution is Here" well gee whiz I would have liked to see it instead of Camille running from safehouse to safehouse.

I honestly wouldn't have even finished this book had I not given up on Evermore earlier this year. I think my time would have been better spent reading something else. I doubt this is a world I will return to.
