I was OBSESSED over To Bleed A Crystal Bloom even though information being withheld to the extent Parker keeps it close isn't for me. Her writing is beautiful and immersive, and I can't get enough. I didn't give this one 5 stars like the first because for this to be the second in a trilogy, I believe we still don't have enough information about all the characters. And I really, really wish Orlaith would talk to someone first to get their truth or think it through before making her beyond-impulsive decisions. She's an even wilder card than Aelin from Throne of Glass! 🙄 I still love her, though, and I can't wait to see how all the loose ends tie together.
