review å PDF, DOC, TXT or eBook Õ Julie C. Dao Julie C. Dao Õ 4 Free read Read & Download Kingdom of the Blazing Phoenix Ü PDF, DOC, TXT or eBook This fairy tale retelling lives in a mystical world inspired by the Far East where the Dragon Lord and the Serpent God battle for control of the earthly realm; it is here that the flawed heroine of Forest of a Thousand Lanterns finally meets her match An epic fantasy finale to the Rise of the Empress novelsPrincess Jade has grown up in exile hidden away in a monastery while her stepmother the ruthless Xifen DNF at page 193 50%I m not going to lie I feel so let down by this After A Forest of a Thousand Lanterns I was really really looking forward to this It was uniue and twisted and a totally unexpected read for last year So going into this I knew this would be in the perspective of Jade AKA Snow White and her journeyOne of the main reasons I ve DNF d this is because I just don t like Jade as a character I mean I didn t like Xifeng but she was so interesting and had something about her that just gripped me from the start Whereas Jade is just so wholesome and sweet and I think birds should just surround her and sing to her I love a nice character but I just found her so bland and goody goody She just bored me to tearsThen there s this little trio and it s just difficult to be like yep these all fit together so well I just can t see it Everything that happens in a period o time is just spoken of in the past in about 2 pages so you don t actually get to see that friendship build A big thing is how much Wren dislikes Jade and then suddenly they re pals whyyyyyy is this a thingOverall I do feel a bit salty towards this so I m going to pretend it never existed and because I don t know how it ends but I probably do because Snow White I m going to say Xifeng lived happily ever after being the true Bitch ueen Look at them pre ramble thoughts I fell sorry for myself now I already need to read this I feel like 2018 is already too far away Cover and info needed pleaseeeeee We have a title
