timefliesaway 's review for:

State of Sorrow by Melinda Salisbury
4.0

The beginning hadn’t really convinced me, so I dropped it and only picked it up a year later. But a few pages later, and I was gripped. Once again a proof that I shouldn’t judge the first pages and give it another try (happens to me a lot, apparently I judge too fast.)

The were a few scenes, which I marked, that truly got to me and I even teared up. As emotional I am, I don’t often cry while reading, so that should be seen as a compliment.

I don’t in particular ship Rasmus and Sorrow as lovers, but I find their romance quite well and accepted it, which isn’t easy for authors to write that good to satisfy the readers. However, I do have my preferred ships and I’m eager to find out if they’ll come canon in the 2nd book.
