Ink in the Blood | 
so-soThis book was too fast paced for my liking in the beginning and end and too slow in the middle. I had no clue what was going on half the time. At most parts, I was like “oh they‘re dead. Ok.” It wasn‘t a great book. But props to it for being casually inclusive of gender identities. 2.5⭐️
so-soThis is like The Night Circus but with a creepy horror plot. Pros: really excellent world-building. Extra bonus points for the fact that gender & sexuality was visible through your aura, & everyone existed on a spectrum of colors. So nobody was othered, everybody just was. Cons: the plot ran away from me...a lot. I was intrigued by what was going on, but also very very confused more than half the time. ★★★☆☆.
panRating: ⭐️⭐️
I found the pacing to be slow and boring. I didn‘t understand how the tattoos worked for inspiration/magic. Like I know they transfer from one person to another, but I didn‘t understand how they were magical. I did like the friendship and the traveling theater troupe.

I have heard absolutely nothing about this book and I'm always looking for books by non-American authors
#38 of my year. Been meaning to read this one since it came out. Haven‘t heard too much about it yet so I‘m kinda nervous lol 🤓📖🎶
Between writing this post and publishing it I have tried four different audiobooks. So far so good with The Ink in the Blood by @kimsmejkal

About to finish this ARC of Ink in the Blood. I have mixed feelings about it so far, but that could be due to the fact that it has taken me forever to read. I started a new job after the new year and my reading rate has suffered immensely. This will make five books for February, which feels like failure to me. Here‘s hoping March is better!
I'm not the only one who heard Hagrid's voice when I read that right...
