Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi

5.0

”With the right blow I could knock him off his feet; with the right thrust I could crush his throat.”

I’m speechless 😶! This book was everything that I was hoping for and more.
The writing is brilliant and beautiful, the story is magnificent, the magic is so unique and the characters are THE BEST PART OF THE BOOK.

At the same time, they are very alike, they are very different. All of them have different reasons to fight but they are fighting for the same thing, PEACE.

All of the characters at the same time are strong yet feel more them they should, they fight for something worth it of death in the way.

The relationship between Zélie and Tzain and Amari is so good!!!! The interaction between them is so fun and amazing!!! They are so strong and badass.
I love them so much💖.


“Taunting. Tainting.
Kill her, I remind myself.
I’ll kill the girl. I’ll kill this curse.
If I can’t—
I force a deep breath.
If I can’t, I’m already dead.”

Inan, I hated you so much at the start and I wanted to keep hating you, oh how I did but one thing let to another and I end up caring for you at the end. He’s such a tortured soul. They all are, to be honest.

The development the characters had, to become what they needed to, is beautiful and realistic. It was a slow process, but such a good one.

I liked almost all of the side characters, except the ridiculous and freaking unnecessary King, he can burn and burn.


“Do not worry,” I whisper as he takes his last breath. “I will make a far better queen.”
There here so many badass moments in this book, holy damn if I didn’t love it!!!

I lived for the funny moments in this book, because to much happen and I needed a break to be able to catch my breath.
“I can almost hear it in my head.”
“What’s it saying?” I ask.
“It’s a horn, Amari. It’s not saying anything.”
My cheeks flush. “Well, if it’s a sculpture, it shouldn’t be making sounds at all!”



That end, I can’t. I need the sequel at this exact moment.
I need answers!.!.!.!
