Belladonna (Belladonna, #1)
von Adalyn Grace
The New York Times bestselling author of All the Stars and Teeth brings to life a highly romantic, Gothic-infused world of wealth, desire, and betrayal.Orphaned as a baby, nineteen-year-old Signa has been raised by a string of guardians, each one more interested in her wealth than her well-being—and each has met an untimely end. Her remaining relatives are the elusive Hawthornes, an eccentric family living at Thorn Grove, an estate both glittering and gloomy. Its patriarch mourns his late wife through wild parties, while his son grapples for control of the family’s waning reputation, and his daughter suffers from a mysterious illness. But when their mother’s restless spirit appears claiming she was poisoned, Signa realizes that the family she depends on could be in grave danger and enlists the help of a surly stable boy to hunt down the killer.However, Signa’s best chance of uncovering the murderer is an alliance with Death himself, a fascinating, dangerous shadow who has never been far from her side. Though he’s made her life a living hell, Death shows Signa that their growing connection may be more powerful—and more irresistible—than she ever dared imagine.

Rezension von JoanneOverall I enjoyed the book and felt quite entertained most of the time, though I did feel a bit bored at times. I didn’t realize I was diving into a murder mystery story when I started reading, which I didn’t mind, but for a murder mystery I found it occasionally lacking in thrill. The mystery and romance elements didn’t stand out as much as they could have. What I really liked was the way death was described as a person and how the theme of death was handled in general. However, the distinction between death as Sylas combined with the murder mystery aspect, sometimes felt a bit too much to fully immerse in the story
Rezension von Emma BauerEs war wirklich toll der Anfang zog sich sehr ,dann wurde es aber sehr spannend
Rezension von VanessaAdalyn Grace entführt ihre Leser:innen in eine atmosphärisch dichte, düstere Welt voller Geheimnisse, Tod und verbotener Nähe. Die Geschichte verbindet Gothic-Vibes mit Mystery und einer Prise Romance und schafft damit eine fesselnde, geheimnisvolle Stimmung. Besonders die Hauptfigur überzeugt durch ihre Eigenwilligkeit und Stärke, während die Handlung mit unerwarteten Wendungen und einer konstanten Spannung punktet. Belladonna ist ein packender Roman für alle, die dunkle Ästhetik, Rätsel und eine unheilvolle, faszinierende Atmosphäre lieben.
