3.5 stars. Not sure if I want to round up, or down.Is it bad that I'm kind of disappointed? That ending was awful. (Cruel, not poorly written.)***Review posted on The Eater of Books! blog***Wintersong by S. Jae-JonesPublisher: Thomas Dunne BooksPublication Date: February 7, 2017Rating: 3 starsSource: eARC from NetGalleySummary (from Goodreads):Beware the goblin men and the wares they sell.All her life, nineteen-year-old Liesl has heard tales of the beautiful, mysterious Goblin King. He is theevery time Liesl said wantonness i thought of wontons and let me tell you, that was the best part of my reading experience. you know those books that literally reach out with their painfully beautiful covers and grab onto you?? saying buy me! im pretty?? well thats what this book did for me, and tbh I dont even care Im returning it. from the very first chapter i was like oh no. this is not heading in a good direction. the family dynamic was so annoying and stupid. Liesl did nothing but whine.
To see this review and others please visit www.readrantrockandroll.comThe moment I saw Wintersong by S. Jae-Jones I had to buy it. The cover, the title, the blurb-pretty much everything about the book baited me. First, I must say that I'm a Labyrinth freak and I've been highly anticipating reading this. I was under the impression that this was a true Labyrinth retelling, but there's more going on here.I was so taken-back in just the first 70 pages of the book. The authors writing style is so
You are the monster I claim. Dark and poetic.Frightening. Seductive. Beautiful.I claim this beautiful tale, I claim the sorrow, the dreams, the wildness, the magic, the darkness and the pain that consumed me.I loved it. Once there was a little girl who played her music for a little boy in the wood. But the girl grew up, and forgot about the boy. She continued her life as if he never existed, she kept her family together, composed her music in the dark and wished, for attention, for
You know what, waving a red flag in front of a bull, getting slammed to the wall by the bull and dying would hurt less than reading the words in this book. Writers like S Jae-Jones need to be illegal because thEY ARE SO EVIL AKDHSF. Wintersong is a painfully beautifully written book about nineteen year old Elisabeth (Liesl) who has always been a responsible and caring older to sister to her siblings Joseph and Kathe, sacrificing her future and dreams for her brother Joseph. She's always lived in
This is a story about a brave maiden. This is a story of a tragedy. This is a story about the power of love. This is a story about the compassion and love and sacrifice between siblings. This is a story about selfishness and selflessness. This is the story of the greatest sacrifice. This is a story about life. Beware the goblin men and the wares they sell.This book is magical. The writing is exquisite. The world is so encompassing and real. The characters are flawed and selfish and selfless and
This was Labyrinth by way of Angela Carter, and I think my soul has been aching for a book like WINTERSONG for the last decade. Deliciously romantic with a nuanced Goblin King figure (fancast: Tom Hiddleston) and a strong heroine, this story was rife with fairytales and music and enchantment. It's also more than a little sexy. No complaints here.
