Rendition In Pursuance Of Books The Winner's Curse (The Winner's Trilogy #1)
Winning what you want may cost you everything you love... As a general’s daughter in a vast empire that revels in war and enslaves those it conquers, seventeen-year-old Kestrel has two choices: she can join the military or get married. But Kestrel has other intentions. One day, she is startled to find a kindred spirit in a young slave up for auction. Arin’s eyes seem to defy everything and everyone. Following her instinct, Kestrel buys him—with unexpected consequences. It’s not long before she has to hide her growing love for Arin. But he, too, has a secret, and Kestrel quickly learns that the price she paid for a fellow human is much higher than she ever could have imagined. Set in a richly imagined new world, The Winner’s Curse by Marie Rutkoski is a story of deadly games where everything is at stake, and the gamble is whether you will keep your head or lose your heart.List Based On Books The Winner's Curse (The Winner's Trilogy #1)

AHHHHHHHH. All the feels. SeriouslyI still love Arin and Kestrel l, but I found myself becoming bored with this at the beginning, but then it definitely got better. Not sure if I should bring my rating down to 4 stars or keep it at a 5 because I definitely didnt experience what I did the first time I read this. my review:This book is fucking awesome. I'm literally speechless and blown away by how enjoyable and gripping this book was. I am so fucking shook, I can't even begin to describe how fucking amazing this book was. The
*WARNING: SPOILERS*Very seldom do I give only a single star to books that I've read from cover to cover. Usually I reserve such a low rating for ones with such abominable writing, such shallow, one-dimensional characters, such poorly constructed plots, that I can't bear to finish them. The writing in this is good. Sure, it's not the kind of prose that sweeps the reader up and transports them fully within the pages, but it gets the job done. The characters are not one-dimensional.

Actual rating: 3.5 A kestrel is a hunting hawk.Yes. The perfect name for a warrior girl.Well. His smile was slight, but it was there. I suppose neither of us is the person we were believed we would become. The second half of this book was exceedingly better than the first. The first was plagued with a rather weak, insipid heroine, an asshat of a "slave" who, seriously, did not act like a fucking slave at all, more like the king of a castle. I disagree with slavery (no shit...like anyone in their
really did not get into this at all. :( I love the cover and formatting but the characters I found very distant
Wow this book exceeded my expectations! I am blown away. I loved Kestrel and Arin. I loved the strong political aspect of the book as well as the connection with music between the characters. Best book I've read so far this year
