About the book:
After Josephine Woods'
father dies of cancer, her mother up-roots the two of them and moves to the
city. Josie hates her city life, but her teenage issues are of little
consequence when they have a car accident and she wakes up in a strange land
(reminiscent of Victorian Europe) alone. Lost, with her school backpack as the
only connection to her world, Josie struggles to find her way home. She is
found by Lucius Conrí, the son of a Marquess, who possesses royal blood and the
gift to shift into a wolf’s form at will. Can the kind-hearted Lucius help her
find her way while winning her love, or will she fall for Donovan Conrí his
older, more serious brother and heir to the Conrí wealth?

Review:
Moonflower
has a great concept and flow! From the beginning, I found myself interested in
the book.
The author really intrigued me with her words. Josephine’s father died of cancer, and by that I was completely shocked, and since I am a cancer survivor, I really understood the pain.

I
absolutely love Josephine. She’s really sweet. I loved the fact that Johnson
doesn’t try to create perfect characters. They looked so real to me. I loved
them and all their flaws.
Usually I
don’t like love triangles (actually I don’t like reading about love either),
but I really enjoyed the tension in the book. It was so hard to choose between
the two brothers… they were complete opposites.
Moonflower
is so well-written, I pictured myself being Josie (we are pretty
much the same). One moment I was in my room, and the other in a different world.
I think there will be a
sequel (I'm hoping for one).
Anyways five cats!
Woohoo!
(Say hello to my cats!)
Hope you have a
wonderful day!
P.S: Do you like my

Hahaha! Of course you will have a Dean next time. (I really like them too. Used to watch it at Italia Uno)
DeleteHmm, I guess you mean Rai 2? Or the reruns on Rai 4...
DeleteAnyway, I had no doubt they were/are your thing ;).
Thank you Anila for the lovely review and for having me on your blog. I'm so pleased you liked Moonflower and the sequel should be coming out at the end of summer or early fall.
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading!
