The Belles has to be one of the most anticipated books of 2018 - if not the most - and after reading the excerpt, I can definitely see why. Dhonielle Clayton's writing is lush and descriptive, the world introduced was interesting, and Camellia is a girl I wanted to learn more about - especially about her mother's role in everything. Also, I must say: I LOVE the cover! It's gorgeous and eye catching.
