I AM ON THE FLOOR. I AM SCREAMING CRYING THROWING UP. i loved this so much. it was actually the perfect ending to this series like it could not have been wrapped up better than this. i ate this up in less than a day and you know why? cause ms. garber knows how to write a damn good book.

THE PLOT:
evangeline has her memories wiped after being cursed by apollo. apollo does everything he can to keep her from remembering, even if that means making her a prisoner in his own manor. it doesn’t take long for jacks to be reintroduced to help evangeline bring back her memories after being framed for erasing her memories. evangeline will stop at nothing…and by no one to remember what was taken from her.

MY THOUGHTS: ⚠️SMALL SPOILER⚠️
i don’t usually write spoilers in this review but it’s kind of hard not to in this case. the first 150 of the pages were boring…completely boring and did little to advance the plot (hence the half star taken). HOWEVER, the entire plot AFTER the 150 pages was a whirlwind. jacks will forever have my heart, truly. i’m so happy that him and evangeline got their happy ending cause i was gonna scream and cause a riot if it was otherwise. the first two books just built it up so well without giving away too much on each others feelings. i really didn’t like apollos pov and wish we had more jacks, but i can understand why stephanie garber did it the way she did. apollo got what he deserved and more and i couldn’t be happier. he was bottom of the barrel scum if i’ve ever seen it.

the character development in this book was insane but in a good way. i loved the way stephanie portrayed evangeline’s confidence and determination throughout the book. the world building wasn’t bad either! i reallyyyy just wish the first 150 pages of the book had more substance.

all in all this was an amazing series and i wouldn’t trade reading it for the world. i can understand why this book got 5 stars, and i can see why it got 3. when i first started i didn’t even wanna pick it up i was so disappointed. it was sitting at a 2/3 in the beginning. however, if you keep reading it gets so much better!! overall my favorite fantasy romance series. 🤭🥰

“he held her so tightly it hurt, but this pain she didn’t mind. she’d let him crush her, let him break her, just as long as he never let go.”

“yes, i am a murderer. i enjoy hurting people. i like blood. i like pain. i am a monster, but whether you remember it or not, i’m your monster, evangeline.”

“please, little fox, remember.”

“you shouldn’t stare at me like that.”
“then how should i stare?”
“you shouldn’t stare at me at all.”

“i’m not letting you leave. you said you were my monster. if you’re mine, why bring me here just to leave me? none of this makes sense.”
“being yours does not make you mine.”

“i’ve made my decision jacks. it’s you. it will always be you, until the end of time. and i’ll fight fate or anyone else who tries to tear us apart—including you. you are my choice. you are my love. you are mine.”

“once upon a time, there was nothing but kissing, and everything was perfect. and then there was even more kissing.”

A Curse For True Love Review! // is this my most disappointing book of the year.

So…it’s been a while. The semester has (finally) ended, so my will to write has returned. Forgive me for pulling a Houdini on y’all, but I hope to deliver some great bookish content and read anything that y’all might want to share! Anyway, I READ A CURSE FOR TRUE LOVE. You know, that little finale to that series that has unashamedly reigned over my top books of the year list for the past two years*? So let’s talk about it!

Note: There will be spoilers for the previous two books but NOT this one!

*can anyone believe that it’s been TWO YEARS since once upon a broken heart was first released in the world?! before that we had such little jacks content! truly the dark ages my friends.

🪄Whimiscal fairy-tale setting

TL;DR: After the events of The Ballad of Never After, Evangeline must reckon with her lost memories and learn who she can trust, including a mysterious man named Archer. Age Rating: 14 and up.

Rating: 3 out of 5.

After the finale* of the Caraval trilogy disappointed me, I had hesitantly high hopes for this final book in the Once Upon A Broken Heart series. The first two were full of magic and whimsy, tinged with darkness at the edges. A poisoned apple of a book series if you will. However, this one just lost a lot of the magic for me unfortunately.

*yes yes, i am well aware that the final book was named finale so it seems like i’m making a not-so-clever reference to it. and so what if i am? i never promised clever and original quips

We follow Evangeline, who has lost her memories after the ending of Ballad. She is married to Prince Apollo, who will stop at nothing to keep her safe from Jacks, whom she doesn’t even remember. She has it all: a prince, a castle, true(?) love. However, when she meets Jacks in the form of Archer, she slowly starts to realize that there’s something dreadfully wrong with her “happily ever after”.

Giselle actually lowkey reminds me of Evangeline now that I think of it. Anyways, A Curse For True Love actually disappointed me more than I thought it did. To start, we get at least twice the amount of chapters from Apollo’s perspective as we do Jack’s. And that tragedy summarizes the crux of the problems with this book: Jacks is not present enough*. As a reader, I do not care about Apollo. His coolest attribute is that he shares the name of a Greek god. His chapters either hint towards some political maneuvering that is never fully fleshed out or some complex villain arc that is…guess what? Never fully realized! Ding ding ding!

*i know it sounds like i’m simping but guys, for once in my life i am OBJECTIVELY not. well…actually i am but come on, it’s jacks!

Not only are we stuck reading from a character who we don’t care about*, but Evangeline’s lack of memories is so frustrating to experience. The first half of this book is incredibly slow, and it kind of feels like nothing of consequence is happening. The only truly captivating parts are when the Valors appear and seem to be vaguely plotting something. Like I said, the politics and mind games never feel truly fleshed out so I couldn’t find it in myself to really care. I was more or less just waiting for Jacks the entire time.

*i just realized i owe the two apollo lovers that exist in the world an apology. i’m happy the two of you get to read about a character you adore.

“He would carry her through more than just freezing waters. He would pull her through fire if he had to, haul her from the clutches of war, from falling cities and breaking worlds . . .”

Jacks is not present enough in this book. The overwhelming chemistry of the first two books just…melts away. Evangeline and Jacks hardly encounter each other and when they do, it’s obviously complicated because of Evangeline’s amnesia*. This not only made the majority of the book a waiting game, but it cheapened the ending. I think it would be better to read all of the books back-to-back, so the banter, side glances, and chemistry carry you through this book.

*sorry for all these side tangents but have i ever stated how much i HATE amnesia as a plot device. the only time it’s ever worked is for dory in finding nemo and even dory doesn’t get a full pass.

The issue with a fantasy romance series is that it often relies heavily on the romance being fleshed out. When that’s not working, the flaws in the fantastical elements really come to light. This book never felt like pure magic in its treatment of setting and characters, not the way the others did. However, I did really enjoy the last 100 pages. We finally got yearning! Love! High stakes! Twists and more twists! The last 100 pages of this book are what I wanted the entire 400 pages of this book to be.

I will add that I own the Owlcrate edition of this book, which means I got to read a very interesting bonus epilogue. There are some characters that I would like to read more about for sure. I think that if Stephanie Garber does end up writing those stories, I can see why this book feels the way it does because it truly feels like a prequel for another series and not the finale to Evangeline and Jack’s.

So that’s it! Overall, I am heartbroken. I still enjoyed the writing, and the characters, not to mention that the first two books definitely softened me for this one. It’s just a shame that this did not feel like a consequential finale for the most part. Anyways, you can order a copy, add it to Goodreads and add it to Storygraph! Tell me: what are YOUR thoughts on this series? How do you feel like this book compared? I gave this a 3/5 stars!
