Winter Glass

Rating: High Five!

Who I'd Recommend to: Fan's of the Lunar Chronicles  and other fairy tale books.

Synopsis (from Amazon): ​Aurora, torn from the dream world and Heath, plots to assassinate the faerie queen Malfleur, only to confront temptations she never expected. Isabelle, meanwhile, opens her heart to Prince William as they attempt to unite their kingdoms and wage a winning war against Malfleur’s army of Vultures.
But when the appearance of an unbreakable glass slipper prompts Isabelle to discover more about her lineage, her true identity begins to take shape and her legacy becomes as clear as ice. Devoted half sisters Isabelle and Aurora will grapple with their understanding of love and loyalty as they face a threat even greater than that of the evil queen—the threat of losing each other forever.

Thoughts: This book was marvelous. I loved, loved, loved how Lexa Hillyer went deeper into Isabelle's past in Winter Glass. I also loved how (spoiler) Gilbert came back. In book one, when Gilbert and Isabelle got separated, I was devastated because Gilbert was one of my favorite characters, and I loved his relationship with Isabelle. So when Gilbert came back, I started jumping up and down and dancing. Another thing that I loved about this book was that the only way to beat Malfleur was with memories. Finally, I loved how Aurora, the sweet little princess who can't talk or feel, becomes a warrior that can easily kill a hundred men. Overall, I cherished this marvelous, amazing book.

NOTE: I received a free copy of this book in exchange for a review. All thoughts are my own. ​
