A Lust for Blood by K.C. Smith

3.0

a lust for blood features lots of interesting concepts. it’s a jeckyll and hyde retelling which i haven’t see done very often. (and as a lover of the OG jeckyll and hyde, i found this so exciting.

the big thing that drew me into this book was the promise of a curse. i love a good curse, especially when written well. along with this, we’re also given an enchanted forest, which is always fun to read about.

my favourite thing about a lust for blood was definitely that we have a morally grey main character. i love these types of characters as they do things that aren’t necessarily expected. oriana was a great mc, as she kept me on my toes, not sure what she was going to do next.

this book also includes a demon and a demon hunter style relationship, which gives major witcher vibes. there’s nothing more exciting than a demon hunter!

and the perfect way to finish it all off: it was a super quick read! i finished this book in a matter of hours. nothing dragged, as something was always happening.
