The start of this book was great and the build up of the plot with the Legendborn society alongside the character development.
However, the ending really disappointed me. It felt flat and it has lost the shark of the first book. So I am unlikely to continue with the series.

This series makes me more nostalgic for the YA fantasy I read as a teen more than any sequel to the series I actually read as a teen could.
Bloodmarked is a jammed-pack twisty sequel that expands on the world and characters, in particular fleshing out how the broader fantasy world works and characters such as Sel and William (my sons). Though the pacing could’ve been better, there’s a lot that happens in this and it at times can feel random or plotless.
