Comentarios generales: me encantó, creo que podría volverse de mis sagas favoritas, no sentí que fuera nada obvio el main plot, las escenas de pelea no eran confusas y el desarrollo de los personajes es increíble. Yo ya sabía varios plot twists por tiktok y aún así terminé sorprendida jajaja que Chido escribe la autora. De verdad que Casteel le anda dando sus buenos madrazos a Rhys, ya queiro novio jajajaj

Escena fav: la apuñala por mil

Personaje fav: Casteel

Frases fav: Nothing is ever simple. And when it is, it’s rarely ever worth it

First half (or like 60%) of this book is super slow and repetitive. Then everything happens in the last 100 pages - still good fun, just takes a while to read

A decent vampire romance with a complex plot. Gender nonconforming readers should be aware that Armentrout inexplicably uses the terms “fe/male” as signifiers of gender. Also, there is a dubious consent kissing scene early in the novel, which I will not mark as a spoiler because I would have liked to know it was there myself.

I wasn’t sure that I was going to finish From Blood and Ash at first, but I am so glad I pushed through. The beginning is a bit repetitive, but now that I have finished it, I understand why! 

FBAA definitely lives up to the hype.
