How 70s is this?

I tried to stick to the reading schedule but my loan was already expired and I had to put my kindle on airplane mode to finish it. 🤫🤫

It‘s been a while since I‘ve picked up one of these books so I forgot how many different POVs you get. Sorry, I found Phury pretty boring as an MC because it was so internal and he never spent time with Cormia. I did like the way the book ended.

Empire of the Damned was one of my most anticipated sequels but something about it just didn‘t hit right for me. I found myself loosing interest every twenty pages or so. I think this could have been shortened a lot to avoid those dead spaces. But nonetheless I kept reading because I love Gabriel as a character. He‘s so witty. But honestly, I‘m not sure if I will continue this series.

🔥🔥🔥

I really want to know what the “beast” looks like I really do … I really enjoyed this read and I‘m so happy I have the next book in the series… but I‘m away from home so I‘ll still have to wait until I get home but I do have it :)

I‘ll admit I completely fell off but ready to jump back in. Are we still buddy reading this series?

“…and they were roommates!” 😂 Hear me out, a pre-cursor to Dracula, but it‘s a thinly-veiled reference to lesbians! I can imagine the pearl-clutching this induced in the late 1800s! This was a great read, especially when you get the edition with a lovely, insightful introduction written by the editor, Carmen Maria Machado, and illustrations by Robert Kraiza. If you love vampire lore, this is a must-read!
