I‘ve read all the books in the Inkeeper Chronicles. I don‘t know when the next book will be out 😭. Until then I‘m moving on to this series.

I enjoyed this book, however, it's one of those, I felt had so much more to offer (vampire/horror-wise) and it focused more on the love story aspect of it. Which I am not against, but had expected more mystery intensity than it gave. I did love that it was set where I grew up - and I think I am averaging up.
Finished reading it while resting in a a huge tub by the ocean this weekend :)
I read this series as a teenager and remembered that this was my least favorite. Holds true. Lestat is impossible. His lack of impulse control is ridiculous and not at all charming. The rape scene of his first foray into sex as a human again was awful. And then he basically did the vampire version of that at the end by making David Talbot a vampire without consent. His remorse after each was laughable. Completely led by his emotions.
I did not expect to like this book, but it drew me in, and by the 2nd half, I couldn't put it down! The storytelling, world building, characters, and magic all hooked me! I wasn't wild about Six of Crows, the only other one of Bardugo's I have read, but I decided to give her another try since she is our March #AuthorAMonth. I'm so glad I did! I will definitely pick up the sequel and continue with this story! @Soubhiville
I‘m at a lakehouse in upstate NY with two of my high school besties. We‘ve hit up 3 bookstores in 2 days. 🤓 This is my haul from the most recent stop.
It‘s BONKERS windy here! Obscured book title tagged. 🐈⬛
This was a fun collection of short story adventures featuring the very prosaic and conflict shy Fred the vampire. Each story builds off the previous but are also self contained adventures. I e heard complaints that the fix up nature of the book leads to too much repetition but it wasn‘t enough to bother me.
A boy is found with his throat ripped out,the blood drained from his body. It's not the first such killing,and the town knows who to blame: the vampire colony in the mountains.
With a title like this I thought the book would be about ghosts not monsters. I am also not a fan of body horror having worked in hospitals broken bones and blood do nothing for me. Check the trigger warnings on this one.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️proper vicious vampires in a gritty world that is dark and dangerous. Excellent characters that will break your heart! A worthy sequel and I can‘t wait for book 3!
