Iniquity (Ascent #1)- Melody Winter BOOK TOUR REVIEW.

TVD 8x04 'An Eternity of Misery' TV TALK.

Thank you so much for reading! I'd love to hear your thoughts- comment them below! Stay amazing! It was a new day in Hearts, and she was the Queen, ''For the murder of Jest, the court joker of Hearts, I sentence this man to death.' She spoke without feeling, unburdened by love or dreams or the pain of a broken heart. I think the last paragraph sums up so beautifully how tragic and heart-breaking the book really is.

The ending scene was so beautifully intense and poignant. The end sentence- 'Off with head'- was so powerful even though I'd guessed that it would be that pretty early on. We have to sit and watch a kind, hopeful and beautiful character turn into a beast because of the all the pain and horror she encounters. Normally, in books, the main character finds themselves during the story and becomes better- this is exactly the opposite. It was so tragic and heart-shattering to watch a character lose themselves so. But he's too nice to say anything!!! Poor bloke.Īll the action within the story with the Jabberwock etc was written so well and it gripped me so effectively. I felt even more sorry for him at the end of the book- he desperately tries to get out of the marriage with Catherine and he's horrified when she sentences Peter to death. I adored the King of Hearts! He was so endearing and sweet but, honestly, some of the things he said just made me cringe! His love letters to Catherine make me feel so sorry for him. Is it just me, or did you totally picture the King of Hearts as Jonathon Groff (King George from 'Hamilton')? I couldn't get the image out of my head! They're so charming that I'm pretty sure it'd be impossible to resist them. The thing I probably love most is how men from that time are so gentlemanly and chivalrous. I don't blame Catherine for falling for him. We see her completely lose herself and we know full well that Jest would be torn apart to see that she's ended up like that. She was so genuinely kind and considerate, I spent 90% of the book thinking 'How the hell is Catherine going to become so evil? She's so lovely!' But I think that's what makes it so tragic.

It's heart-breaking to know that the reason she doesn't have a heart is because she asked for it to be taken away from her- simply because it hurt to imagine living without Jest.Īnd I loved Catherine. Now though, I feel very sorry for her and kind of think that she has a right to be like she is- it's not exactly her fault. It was gripping, entertaining and a perfect story for how the Queen of Hearts came to be. I loved this book from the very beginning. SPOILERS AHEAD- SPOILERS AHEAD- SPOILERS AHEAD- SPOILERS AHEAD
