Yep. I knew this book was gonna be fabulous. These characters are just so fun. Drama and emotions. Romance and excitement. It was great.

Looking forward to the next one! ]]>

I truly cannot remember the last time I gave a book 5 stars. I loved everything about this one. Truly. The banter, the drama and the romance were so much fun to read. I would absolutely LOVE to read some stories based on a few of these side characters. ]]>

Ok. This was super fun. Fade to black/closed door. But you won’t hear me complaining. Slow burn that delivered. And now I’m super excited to read the next one. These characters are wild and crazy but incredibly loyal to one another. ]]>

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

I just finished A Fate Inked in Blood this morning! Let me tell you, I really liked it, except for one part that I couldn’t get out of my head. I won’t add it here, cuz spoilers. Let’s just say real life morals/beliefs are sometimes hard to separate from fantasy books. I’ve never had a book cause me this amount of turmoil. I eventually got over it but it had a chokehold on me for way longer than I was expecting.

On the flip side, this book was addicting. Once I started reading it was very hard to stop and go to sleep last night. I really needed to know what happened!!

The main character was a 20yr old who seemed to take the world on her shoulders. At times I wanted to reach in and shake her. Her immaturity was showing and I felt she needed someone to force her to see her journey from all angles. But alas, the people around her only saw things from their own so they didn’t really help her.

I am very anxious to wait for the next book. I really need things to work out and one big part, for me, to resolve itself. What an ending!

This was a solid 4 til the last two chapters, then I added a 1/2 star. It gave me lots of feelings. feelings = stars

*edit*
My second reread was via audible and I think I liked it more that time. And also I realized how I BUTCHERED all the pronunciations when I read it. 😂 ]]>

Ok. I’m finally getting caught up and I had no idea this was a rehash of book one from his pov. 😂 But let me tell you, I’m thrilled. I love the male pov and I didn’t remember anything from the previous books so this made me very happy. And now I sit here waiting til July for the next book�. ]]>
