“If you wither, Rose, then I wither with you. One hundred percent.”

⭐️ Infinity stars (and then some) 🌶️🌶️🌶️

Anyone who knows me already knows how obsessed I am with Kellen Kilic and Noella Rose after Bleeding Rose. I went into Bleeding Rose for the magical academy vibes – immediate yes from me, but what I got was so much more than magic and school corridors.

This book reached into my chest, rearranged my heart, and refused to put it back the way it was.

The character work in this is unreal. I already loved this cast, but Weeping Rose somehow deepened every existing relationship while making me fall hard for the newer characters too. The bonds, the sibling dynamics, the complicated parent–child relationships, the found family threads; it all felt tender, raw, and painfully human even in the middle of a Primordial world. Mental health, grief, trauma, duty, and love are handled with a kind of care that feels both gentle and brutally honest. It is healing and devastating in the same breath.

Kellen and Noella absolutely own this book. Their love is feral, reverent, and rooted in choice as much as Fate. The way they speak about each other, fight for each other, and grow alongside each other made me highlight what feels like eighty per cent of the book. I cried more times than I can count, sometimes from the softness, sometimes from the ache, sometimes just from a single line landing exactly where it hurt.

The plot itself is intense and beautifully woven – academy politics, prophecy, war, power, family history – but it never loses sight of the emotional core. Every battle, every lesson, every quiet conversation adds another layer to the question of what it means to live with immense power, immense love, and immense pain all at once. The ending completely took me out. I knew something was coming, but nothing could have prepared me for that. I am going to be in a coma until book three comes out. Send help.

Even if this hadn’t been an ARC read, Weeping Rose would still be an easy top ten read of the year for me. It feels like one of those rare books that understands what it means to break and still choose to keep going. I’m so, so grateful I got to read this early, to live inside this world a little longer, and to keep walking alongside Kellen and Noella.

Thank you, Kyla, for creating them and for pouring so much love into these characters. 🌹⚡️
