~**~ Blog Tour for A Lesson in Thorns (Thornchapel #1) BY Sierra Simone w/ Review ~**~

 



Once upon a time, six children stumbled upon a wild place hidden deep in the moors, shrouded by secrets and fog. There we played a game among the roses and the thorns that would change us forever, that would follow us the rest of our lives. A game that ended with a hard kiss in the rain and tattered flower petals fluttering from above…

And twelve years later, we’re back.

The heir.
The dreamer.
The priest.
The genius.
The socialite.
The saint.

I’m not going to dream of a forgotten place covered in thorns every night. I won’t be enchanted by Thornchapel and its glossy, glamorous people. I’m not going to fall in love or have my heart torn in two.

I’m not telling the truth.

Because as this place slowly tightens its coil of secrets and thorns around us, as we uncover the knotted mysteries that grow here, the six of us begin to unravel into filthy, holy pleasure and pain. Fulfilling the promise we once made as children in those whispering ruins, and awakening a fate that will either anoint us or leave us in ashes…

And we have another “Where do I even begin?” Book on our hands folks. This one definitely hit my dark and kinky buttons and kept me turning the pages to hopefully get some answers to the little intrigues that surround Thornchapel. But what truly got me were the characters themselves and how fascinated I was by all of them.

Now, I know thinking, “ummm girl they are supposed to fascinate you, that’s why you loved this book” and you are correct, but see, it goes a little deeper than that for me. I’m an observer by nature, I like to watch people interact with each other, animals and the world around them to the point where sometimes I make them uncomfortable because I don’t verbally interact with them (it’s not intentional, I promise) I simply like to get a good read on a person before diving in and this book gave me six subjects that had my brain in its happiest of places because they were all so unique and yet relatable. And since I also got to peek into their minds, well, let’s just say my brain had found its own slice of nirvana. But with my brain all kinds happy, I don’t have a favorite thus far because they all just fascinate me and have me wanting more of them to see where this crazy journey they are on takes them.

This is my first book by the author and I was hooked from the start. It was easy to fall down the rabbit hole with these characters and want to see where their choices took them. This is a read that is a little bit of everything in it, it’s dark, gritty, mysterious and romantic in its own way and filled with so many things simmering beneath the surface that I cannot wait to see how it all turns out!
