The Rose Society
Okay, it took me weeks before finishing this because I just started my senior year in college and that means I barely have time to read *cries in 10 pages*
However, when I started reading again it sucked me into this dark world of Adelina's mind. Yes, I read the other reviews about the second book that was the climax of the story which it is especially the last chapters. I was amazed how I sympathize with her because I know she struggles to be good and to see good in others. She's a broken girl with destructive powers. I loved her when she took the throne it was badass. I love Adelina's dark thoughts because they sound real and frightening.
PS. I don't know why but I ship Raffaele and Enzo!!!!!

Okay, so this book was wayyy better than the young elites. i mean the writing was so good and the characters were amazing. I liked adelina a lot cuz i feel like i sometimes resemble her, the way she always has dark thoughts and whispers in her head and the way she wants to get revenge for everything. I love how she swayed the inquisitors into her side and how she made Teren her captive. I also really like teren (even tho he is a villian) cuz he just made the book way better. Like i felt rlly bad tho when giulietta betrayed him and when adelina made him mad enough to kill his lover. I also love his taunting and teasing nature.This book was epic and so excited to read the third one!

Reading this makes me have a whole knew perspective of everything I read. I never thought that a villain’s story could be so deep. It sends shivers down my spine reading about Adelina’s thoughts. Although I can’t believe how determined Adelina was to seize the throne. This was the darkest books I ever read, and I have a certain feeling after reading it. Overall I think this was a great book it really connected me to the characters and how they felt. Even though it is quite dark I really like it, and I feel like I’m part of the side! This is a side note but I feel like the song Queen of Broken Heart fits Adelina very well if you heard the song you would understand.

I liked the progression of this book better than The Young Elites. I felt the writing was better too. And the characters who were mere sparks in the first book grew so much bigger with more depth and emotion. Adelina, though villianous, still had conflicting emotions and it was powerful reading/going through that with her. I loved this book....unfortunately I don't have the third one.

There were moments when I was cheering Adelina on, to seize the throne, but mostly I was cringing. Kudos to Marie Lu for writing such a tumultuous female lead

Not my cup of tea. It was ok, but lacked the excitement Marie Lu's books usually contain. It was very different because it was written from Adelinas perspective, but I think it is still wort reading because the third book was very enjoyable.
