I will agree with everyone that the last 50 pages of this are absolutely wild and had me super emotional. That being said, I kind of got frustrated with many of the characters throughout this book. I think it’s because this has the ruthless and emotionless type of vampires that I think are really well suited for high fantasy but make it really hard for character development and connection which is something I really look for in a fantasy romance. I’ll definitely continue on because I’m so intrigued with what will happen after that ending but I definitely wouldn’t agree that this lives up to all the hype it’s getting.
