Bloodleaf by Crystal Smith

4.0

3.75/5
This book is full of danger, it's not safe, you have been warned.

I liked the point of view of the protagonist, her rational view on many things and her processing the outcomes.
Chapter 9 ... It was so sad, I was left with a hole inside my chest.

I fell for the boy in the book... the prince. This, I can assure you is not healthy, maybe it's just a phase I'm going through, but my emotions were pulled in all sorts of directions.

My previous thoughts:

Ok, just putting this out there, because it needs to be said.

It's 2019 and we are still recycling the same old topics.

First thought was that this book wasn't really exciting or action-packed. However, it had me going especially with the language and the form it was presented in.

Moving on past that, I'm enjoying the book very much. It is consistent, it has information (although about magic and superstitions) it did not, however, divert me from liking it.

Some have said they had read this in one go, I don't know how, because the writing wasn't that fluent enough (not a really bad thing) for me.
Some have said that this is a retelling, well if that's the case, I won't take back, what I've said earlier, but on a side note, I would like you to keep that in mind whilst writing your next great story.
