Were you disappointed?”
She takes a deep breath, looking down at her hands. “My heart was. My head wasn’t. Most days I’m at war with myself. My head wins, usually. And for that I’m glad.
The Sleeping Prince / Melinda Salisbury
———————————————————-
This book made me cry, be terrified, laugh: all because of its twists and secrets. It is the second in a the Sin Eaters Daughter series which is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! The sleeping prince is a fairytale where Errin lives, she just never thought it could come true, even the bloodshed and horror. Errin’s brother left and her mother is too ill and dangerous- so she has to flee, alone. The only person she can turn to, fortunately, isn’t a stranger, although Errin has never seen his face. 5/5
“I’m the murderer,” I shout back at him. “I am the executioner for treason. Of course I’m damned.”
“You’ve never killed anyone,” he says harshly. “It’s not real.”
“Your wrong.”
He makes a sound of pure frustration, slamming his hands against the wall by my head making me flinch. “What do I need to do to prove it to you?”
“You can’t prove it to me.”
“Yes, I can,” he says slowly. “Yes, I can.”
He leans forward, pressing his mouth to mine.

I’m tired of taking people’s sins on myself.
I’m tired of running away from everything.
I want to be like Errin. Like Nia. Like Sister Hope. I want to be the girl who fought a golem, the girl who slammed her hands on a table and told a room full of powerful women that I was going to fight, and to hell with them.
I survived the court of Lormere. I survived the journey to Scarron. I survived the Sleeping Prince’s raid on the Conclave. I am a survivor.
The Scarecrow Queen / Melinda Salisbury ———————————————
This is the final book in the sin eaters daughter series. Aurek will stop at nothing to keep the throne forever; in result rebels attempt to defeat him. And they too, will stop at nothing. But they’re all running out of time. All of them… This is the type of book that you want to finish to find out how it ends, but at the same time, you want the book to last forever. 5/5 (*Did make me cry!*)
