The Crown & the Arrow (The Wrath and the Dawn, #0.5)
Renée Ahdieh
Seventy-one days and seventy-one nights had come and gone since Khalid began killing his brides. This dawn, Khalid would mark the loss of the seventy-second girl, Shahrzad al-Khayzuran. Khalid didn’t know how many more of these dawns he could take. And there was something about this latest girl that piqued his interest. Not only had she volunteered to marry him, but at their wedding ceremony, she had seemed not the least bit afraid. In fact, what he had seen in her eyes was nothing short of pure hatred. She was about to lose her life. Why wasn’t she afraid? Why did she hate him so? He had never before gone to his wife’s chambers before her death at dawn. Tonight would be different. The ebook is a free purchase via one of the online stores.

0No. Just no. I was hoping we'd get something that would show me that Khalid actually had a personality or some sort of depth to him.
But no.
It's just a few pages of him being broody. And then I'm supposed to think he's actually a good guy because he doesn't want two women from the same family being taken. I'll pat you on the back for that one, bud. Not.
I did learn something about Khalid. He's a moron. He can't figure out why Shazi might hate him so much?? He thinks it just HAS to be personal. She can't just hate him for murdering girls for no reason. No, it MUST be personal. And since he didn't murder her sister, since he'd not married anyone with the same last name, this moron cannot figure out how it could POSSIBLY be personal. A friend, a neighbor, an old schoolmate... nope. It's either sister or bust because this idiot is too stupid to put two and two together to make four.
