A Curse For True Love

Book Review: A Curse for True Love by Stephanie Garber

A Curse for True Love by Stephanie Garber is a captivating and enchanting sequel that will sweep readers off their feet, if not leave them breathless. Set in the same spellbinding world as Once Upon a Broken Heart, Garber’s latest installment brings even more magic, mystery, and romance to the story.

The novel follows the aftermath of the tangled fates of Evangeline Fox and Jacks, the charming, morally complex character who is as frustrating as he is captivating. Garber does a beautiful job of drawing out their emotional tension, building on their complicated love story and the curse that threatens to keep them apart. The chemistry between the two is undeniable, with the push and pull of their relationship keeping readers on the edge of their seats.

Garber’s writing is lush and full of vivid imagery, creating a world that feels both dreamlike and dangerous. The plot itself is twisty, unpredictable, and, at times, a bit dizzying but in a way that only adds to the allure. However, while the world-building and romance are top-tier, there are moments when the pacing feels a bit uneven, and the stakes don’t always feel as high as the narrative promises.

The ending, while satisfying in many ways, also leaves a bit to be desired: there’s a sense of unfinished business that makes me crave the next installment. It’s the kind of book that makes you ache for more, even as it wraps up with a sense of resolution that keeps you hooked for the future.

In conclusion, A Curse for True Love is a beautifully woven tapestry of magic, romance, and heartache, though it does leave a few threads untied. Fans of Garber’s previous works will find plenty to love, and for those new to her world, this story offers an irresistible invitation to dive into her fantastical realm. It’s a tale of love, curses, and the choices we make for the people we care about—one that will leave you both swooning and wondering what comes next.
