Just a heads up before I begin the summary, this book is by far one of the saddest books I have ever read. This book is all about the queen of hearts and what her story was. I was shocked to discover that the queen of hearts as we know her was actually the very opposite of who she was in her teen years.
SPOILER ALERT!
She used to be a happy joyful girl who loved to bake and wanted to find true love. And just as she found that true love, he was mutilated before her very eyes. After that, the queen of hearts, Catherine, was never quite the same again. She gave her heart away, it being no longer needed without her significant other, Jest. I was so sad when I read this book because Jest was my favourite character and I really thought he and Catherine could make each others’ lives better. So when he died, I was just reeling from the shock! A few days after I was still pretty frustrated at the author for making him die but this book has also made Marissa Meyer one of my favourite authors so I guess it has its pros and cons but anyone who likes a bit of romance and adventure should definitely read this. 🙂
This review is a very true reflection of this book! Jest dying was the most shocking part of the book because I never thought that Marissa Meyer would let a main character die! It was heartbreaking to see the change in her! This book was such a tear jerker but still a great read!
IKRRR! I was so sad I was depressed for the other half of the day and I saw like a crow that looked like a Raven and I just thought of jest and became depressed again
I was the same! I just kind of sulked around for a while! Great review! Jest was definitely my favourite!
