This book had great dialogue and an interesting universe with some cool magic mechanics like resonance. I love several of the characters even though some of them have made some terrible decisions along the way. Leigh’s wit is hilarious. Jon is my ideal man, I think—lovable in every way, even if he is a hothead, but I adore the way he stands up for Rielle’s honor. I don’t even mind Brennan too much by the end of the book, except that he becomes a cliche trope. He can’t help that, but I don’t want to feel bad for him. I just wish the story didn’t have to go there. My biggest reservation is that I can clearly see this series is plummeting deep into tortuous love triangle territory, and I cannot stomach that when drawn out over several installations. That’s a big no from me, sorry. I had to peek ahead at spoilers to decide if I would continue reading or not, but I guess I will, even though I’m dreading the back and forth already. I also think some of the plot twists turned a little too sharply at the end. Regardless, I’m still on board to see what’s next. Blade and Rose was a really enjoyable page-turner.
