"THIS STORY BEGINS WITH ENDLESS NIGHT AND infinite forest; with two orphaned children, and 
 two swords made of broken bone. 
 It has not ended yet." 
 WaaooooowwwwWOW. See? I remember the spelling! This book is fantastic, a terrible beauty which leaves you bewildered even after you finished it long ago. I don't think I can ever take it out of my system. This was the first Rosamund Hodge's book that I read. And I have to say that it was..... 
 MIND BLOWN!!! 
 Okay, so why I LOVED it?? And why I think you would love it too? This is why... 
 A action packed, thrilling story, with dark happiness and romance that will blow your mind and I am not sure you'll be able to put the pieces back together very soon. Even now some parts of my cerebrum is missing. It was one of the most addicting stories ever. 
 "She said that you always had to choose between the path of 
 needles and the path of pins. When a dress is torn, you know, you can just pin it up, or you can take 
 the time to sew it together. That's what it means. The quick and easy way, or the painful way that 
 works." 
 A fairytale retelling, but a unique story in itself: A shout to Fantasy Cravers! It is a fairytale retelling, can you guess which one?? Um, let me tell you, it's the "Little Red Riding Hood". But don't think that it would be exactly like the initial story it only has some appearances similar to that story, otherwise it's a completely different story, completely different. The story mainly tells about a girl called Rachelle, who is a woodwife, now you may ask what is a woodwife? It's a long story and I am too lazy to write it down, haha. So, moving on, she meets one of the forestborn (it's somewhat like Death Eaters,they are the followers of Devourer). So, then she is marked by a forest born and then becomes a bloodbound, (it's somewhat like vampires with these stealth, power and grace. But don't worry they don't drink blood) So, after she becomes a blood bound, she loses her hope of ever redeeming herself. Of ever helping people, but she does help the innocent people from the dark creatures of the Great Forest. Believe me, it's a completely different world, just like Wizarding World or the Shadowhunters' World. She wants to defeat the Devourer or die in the process before she finds her world in the Everlasting Night, where the Great Forest will consume the world. Will she be able to find the sword, Joyuse? The only way to kill the Devourer. But how can she find it?? 
 "The woodwife opened a door above the sun, below the moon, and hid Joyeuse 
 against our hour of greatest need." 
 Where is this place? Will she ever be able to find it? Or the world will plunge into darkness? 
 It grabbed me from the very first page, it was so intense and strong, complex and layered. I could not leave the book for even a minute. Everytime I deduced something, thinking myself as Sherlock Holmes, I was proven wrong. 
 It is a story where we learn that even demons, even villains can sometimes save the world, save humanity and save the people they love. And all they need is to be a human in heart, with the very mortal heart with feelings that can shatter anyone. It's a story where heroes are made, not born. That's why I love this. 
 The complex characters All the characters made by Rosamund are complex and layered yet very relatable. All of them are tangled in a perfect pattern with surprise and twists at every turn. Rachelle is one of the most astounding heroines of the book. She has her own inner demons, her secrets, her grief and rage. But all those things which kills her inside bit by bit, it makes her stronger. She does everything to protect her people even though people may think that she is herself a monster. She is evil, she is good, she is brave to the very core. A very complex but very real character. Now, it's her choice, to become good or bad. To become inhuman and powerful or mortal and brave. There are choices to be made, oaths to be broken, and a task that can save or destroy the whole world. 
 To all those who need a variety in the "Book Boyfriend" . Crimson Bound is the solution, we meet Armand, the braveheart, the illegitimate son of the king, the saint of the people. Armand who lost his hands when he refused to become a bloodbound. Armand who knows the secrets of the Zisa and Tyr. Armand who has a terrible power of summoning the Forest. But, his appearance is not to be judged upon. All that glitters are not gold and this book proves it right, Armand proves it right. He is immensely good at heart. Very much. 
 Now coming to Erec, I cannot even describe him without spoiling you. But he is one of those kinds of boys who play dangerous games and win at everything. The one with terrible beauty and stealth. A person with tremendous power and charming enough that even our Rachelle has feelings for him. But I was so angry at him, he interrupted my Aramand and Rosamund ship. So if you have the same feelings and ever need help in killing Erec, I am the person for you to look for. I know all the ways to kill and dispose a body. 
 That was the problem with Erec: everything was always a game to him, and he always won. 
 It is one of the most astounding story ever and I loved how the ties between Armand and Rachelle evolved. It is not a story where there's a Bad Boy but a Monster Girl. It is fabulous to the very core. 
 The Double Trouble Yarn. It doesn't only tell the tale of our Rachelle, but also our very own Zisa and Tyr. The two legends, two swords and one unfinished adventure. Now to be completed by Rachelle. My mouth gaped open when I just saw the way Rosamund as put together the two stories in a perfectly amazing way. I couldn't put it in words. It's one of the best things I ever witnessed in a book. Amazing. 
 "She couldn't stop seeing him. 
 She was supposed to watch him. But now she kept noticing every detail: his embroidered cuffs shifting against his silver wrists. The sliver of pale throat visible above his collar. The peculiar way he planted himself when he stood, as if bracing for a heavy wind. Even sitting on a horse, his shoulders had the same stubborn set. 
 He still smiled at the lords and ladies who talked to him, but now there was something wry to the expression. Sometimes he would draw out a word a little longer or clip it off a little shorter than she had expected, as if a bit of his thoughts had bled through. As if his thoughts were something separate and lonely that had no place in the role he was playing." 
 Rosamund does know how a make a Love Triangle perfect. Now, don't wrinkle your nose or roll your eyes. This is a 
 perfect love triangle 
 , and this book needed it to make it more EPIC. It is the Best Triangle I ever read. 
 Coming to the very potential of Rosamund my toes curled with envy. The way she puts the pieces together in an amazing jigsaw puzzle is truly a miracle. A person who knows how to write beautifully is rare, but a person who writes an amazing story in the best of the words of English, that person is purely dangerous. Make sure to run for the hills if you ever meet them. 
 The mysteries and twists in the stories throw you from one part of the world to another. It's like a physical shock and don't be afraid to gasp loudly, or cry or act weird in front of public. Everyone who reads this is bound to do that. There were just so many surprises that with each and every page, my brain was inflating into a giant balloon. And by the time I reached the last part, it went.....BAAMM!! It simple exploded and I was blinking at the pages completely dumb and stupid. 
 It's a must read for everyone who loves Fantasy or Fiction or Romance or anything. The story binds itself in your heart and all you can do is feel for them. Just give this little beauty a try, and I assure you that you will not be disappointed. Read this one or you'll find yourself in the claws of merciless Woodspawn. And let me tell you they like playing with their food. Ruthlessly. So, you've been warned! I will pray that the Woodspawn doesn't chew you. I pray, I pray for you.
