Grab The Lily And The Cross (The Ring And The Crown, #2) Picturized By Melissa De La Cruz Viewable As Hardcover

was interesting enough, but the needed editing was hard to ignore I loved the concept of the story and the plot in this book, I loved characters so much, It has so much action in this book, It is intriguing, engrossing and scandalous, and a lot of romance, Brilliant!!!

I loved this book, yes there was the odd typo, but it was amazing, I only hope a third book is written in this series.
this makes me so sad and frustrated that she's never going to release this book, I've been dying to know what happens next, This was the only series after Blue Bloods that I was interested in, So yeah. This book isn't going to be released, Apparently this isn't the first time she's started a series then it was, what Cancelled Abandoned I have no idea, I don't think I'll be reading any more of her stuff, I'm really bothered by this whole "nah, just kidding! no more books in that series for you!" thing, Bleh. Disappointed I don't have a "WTF" shelf, WHY YOU SO FAR AWAY!

: : : : : I may read this, Because I'm not sure I can stand a certain couple TOGETHER Update: It appears that only the first draft of this novel is going to be released per the author's sitelinkblogHonestly, I'm sort of annoyed and I really don't know if I'll be paying a feeeven for a good causefor a draft of a book.
The main reason I am putting this note here, is to remind myself when I'm looking through my TBR list later on to know that hey this is never going to be traditionally published and to inform others who might be interested in the title.


Side note this is not the only de la Cruz title that has been stopped mid series, Vampires of Manhattan, The Ashleys, AND Girl Stays in the Picture have all been dropped, I was excited when I saw this ebook, I didnt remember all of the first book, but I wish Id read up on it before I started this one.
There are so many different characters, its not hard to follow along, just annoying when youre reading about characters you dont like, And sadly not all the characters get their stories finished, The genealogy can get a little weird too, Melissa's blog entry on Marchth,stated the book will not be released, The first draft she wrote will be available to buy for a small fee that will go to yallwest

com/blog/page SOOOO apparently this is never getting published

I am so sad this series was cancelled, This particular book is a "first draft" of what the second book would have been, I'm really glad to have it, For its own merits, I'd likely put it at a, but the fact that de la Cruz went ahead and did all of this and was vulnerable enough to give us this, it definitely gets a.
I love these characters and this plot, It's tragic that it wasn't popular enough for a complete series, Chaiiiii
I wonder what will happen now,
Every time I see this book my pulse races, . . !

So like with White Nights, The Lily and the Cross is the unpublished first draft because de la Cruzs publishing company cancelled the series due to fill in the blank here.
And since this is a first draft my normal complaints weird paragraph breaks, spelling and grammar issues which I really shouldnt throw stones when I have my own problems with that.
But there was also some other issues too, Like I felt that some paragraphs were a little bit long winded and there were some back story that I felt that I could have done without, Si te gustó el libro anterior, tienes que leer su continuación, a pesar de que es tan sólo un borrador,

Un consejo: si no recuerdas a todos los personajes, relee el último capítulo de The Ring and the

Crown, ahí se explica todo!

En el primer libro me gustaron todas las subtramas, principalmente la historia de Ronan, y esta vez me ocurrió lo mismo.
Sin embargo, casi no pude soportar la historia de Aelwyn, ya que con ella profundizaron más en la magia de Avalon, y lo sentí un poco forzado, Por lo demás los nuevos personajes son increíbles, aunque no los conocemos lo suficiente,

Yo lo leí en inglés, y creo que como a todo el mundo, me molestó mucho que hubiera erratas o faltas de ortografía/gramática.
Didn't know this was a series! I'm interested to see how this will continue, . .
