A review by farisainherfeels
The Blood King by Abigail Owen
4.0
I really loved the dynamic between the two leads here but the romance took a backseat to the overarching plot. Also, the author keeps dropping breadcrumbs of what could be but doesn't follow through on them - like this FMC being told she has hidden powers/ potential but there being no leads on that in this book. I assume (HOPE!) it will manifest in the last book of the series but it really should've been in her own story, the book feels unfinished without the followthrough.
Also, wayyy too many ftb scenes when this wasn't a problem with the first book! (So really this book should be 3 stars but I genuinely loved the two MCs together on-page lol.) I'm also nervous about the next book because I'm not a fan of the way Meira was characterised in this book - a damsel in distress who wants coddling.
