2 comments
Hello everyone,
Today I want to share a different experience with you. Recently I read an amazing novel - Bride by Ali Hazelwood. It is not just a simple romantic fantasy or science fiction story, but much more. Bride is the story of a world where vampires and werewolves have been fighting for centuries. Standing in the middle of this political and social conflict, a woman Misery Lark embarks on a courageous journey in search of her identity, freedom and truth. In this novel, Hazelwood has not only told a story of romance or action, but has also given deep thoughts about society, governance, the true meaning of freedom and ideological conflicts.
Book Summary
The story of Bride begins with a contracted marriage. In order to establish peace between the two rival vampire and werewolf factions, Misery Lark, the daughter of a vampire councilman, is to marry werewolf leader Lowe Moreland. The contract symbolizes a fragile peace between two powerful clans, but behind it lies many secrets, fears, and a woman's personal journey. Misery agrees to the marriage largely out of her family's wishes and political obligations, but she also has a hidden agenda of her own, and she joins this dangerous game to learn the truth about her past.
Misery Lark is a remarkable heroine. On the one hand, she grew up in a quiet, aristocratic vampire society, on the other hand, she has an indomitable independent spirit. She is forced to make decisions under the influence of family and politics, but gradually her strength and intelligence are revealed. She not only selflessly sacrifices herself, but also strives to find answers to the questions in her mind.
Lowe Moreland is an alpha werewolf leader, strong, serious and suspicious. He does not trust Misery at all, because in his eyes, vampires are just frauds. But as the story progresses, a softer and more human side begins to emerge in Lowe's character. He is not only a warrior or a ruler, but also a lover, a protector and a reluctant companion.Ali Hazelwood's writing style is as light, straightforward, and conversational as ever. She combines her natural humor with suspense in this book. Misery and Lowe's conversations in particular are very real and enjoyable.
However, unlike other Hazelwood books, this story does not have a STEM or academic setting. Instead, there is a gothic setting, dark politics, mysteries of the past, and supernatural tense moments that create the main atmosphere of the book.For those who enjoy Paranormal Romance, love Enemies-to-lovers’ relationships, and are looking for a fast-paced, thrilling, suspenseful story, Bride might be a good choice.

My Personal Thoughts
I read the book Bride by Ali Hazelwood a few days ago. I really liked the book. It's not just a love story, it also includes the troubles between vampires and werewolves, mysteries, and a girl's attempt to find her own path. I really liked the main character of the story, Misery. She is very calm, but very brave inside. And the boy she marries, Lowe, seems difficult at first, but gradually his good sides are seen. How their relationship gradually changes is shown very beautifully.
I not only enjoyed reading this book, but also made me think about some things, such as freedom, trust, and the ability to make my own decisions.
Overall, I enjoyed the book a lot. Written in simple language, and the story had a tense tension. This is a great book for those who like romantic fantasy.
My rating: 4/5 ⭐️
