"Sixteen-year-old Kyra, a highly-skilled potions master, is the only one who knows her kingdom is on the verge of destruction—which means she’s the only one who can save it. Faced with no other choice, Kyra decides to do what she does best: poison the kingdom’s future ruler, who also happens to be her former best friend.
But, for the first time ever, her poisoned dart . . . misses.
Now a fugitive instead of a hero, Kyra is caught in a game of hide-and-seek with the king’s army and her potioner ex-boyfriend, Hal. At least she’s not alone. She’s armed with her vital potions, a too-cute pig, and Fred, the charming adventurer she can’t stop thinking about. Kyra is determined to get herself a second chance (at murder), but will she be able to find and defeat the princess before Hal and the army find her?
Kyra is not your typical murderer, and she’s certainly no damsel-in-distress—she’s the lovable and quick-witted hero of this romantic novel that has all the right ingredients to make teen girls swoon." -Goodreads.com
After I finished Poison I felt so heartbroken. Not because the book wasn't good. It was the complete opposite of that. It was amazing. I fell in love with Kyra, Fred, the world, and pretty much everything in the book. The reason I felt heartbroken was the fact Bridget Zinn sadly passed away to 2 years ago and the fact I will never get to read another book that was so amazing was heartbreaking. Even when I started it I knew there wouldn't be another one so mentally tried to not to fall in love with it but that lasted all of maybe 10 pages. I don't think I can say it enough but I just am so sad that Bridget Zinn won't have any new books (or that she never got to see how many people have fallen in love with her book.).
So as you can see via my long ramble I loved this book. A lot.
Rest in awesome Bridget Zinn. Your book will make you missed by people who have never met you, including me.
5 stars.
