5.0

la réflexion sur les liens générationnels, le deuil et le motherhood des familles afroaméricaines est absolument excellente. l'intégration de leur histoire et traditions spirituelles fait en sorte que ce livre me semble être bien plus qu'un simple YA fantasy novel. my god this was good and did not feel childish at all

I was so delightfully frustrated with Bree as I read this. She did so many things that I would’ve never done. But that certainly aided the twists and turns of the story—which were plentiful, and often hard to predict. Once I picked this up, it was hard to put down!

AMAZING. This has to be my favorite read of the year if not ever. I don’t think I’ll read anything else this year that’ll top it. In getting back into reading these past two years I’ve yet to read something with such good representation. I love Nick and Bree together. I love Bree and her personality. I love her growth. I like how Alice also slowly grew. William is my bestie. I’ve ordered a signed version of BLOODMARKED and look forward to reading it!!
