While certainly a sweet enough book with its intentions, especially for a fairy tale, Roses and Thorns offers no real connection or chemistry between the two central characters. It is also unnerving (for me, at least) that the "Beast" (who could not be considered a beast in any universe) is so deceptive about who s/he really is. For much of the time I read this I felt a bit creeped out...mostly because it doesn't seem like a relationship between equals.
I enjoyed the story. The writing was decent and I felt Wolfe did a good job with the world building.
Probably a lot of people have written off the Aggar books as poor-quality independently published lesbian romance. All true except the 'poor quality'. The two Aggar books are surprisingly well-written, and I'd recommend them to lovers of queer fantasy.
