Reviews with content warning for Blood - Kingdom of the Cursed

Update: Book one's definitely better than this book after a second reading. Lol. I had to downgrade my rating from 3.5 to 2.5 (and this is me being generous already). I'm sorry. 🙁 I might read the book 3 though just to see what's gonna happen.

This book picked up quickly to where book one left off.

The first few chapters were a bit slow though and I find the training session dragging when Emilia didn't even encountered any of what she was trained for in the party. And the other Princes of Hell were bland as hell. Pride didn't come off as frightening, spooky, and every scary descriptions you could think of like he's supposed to be being the known powerful King of Hell.

And half of the book is either Emilia thirsting for Wrath or just them all over each other and I'm like, I don't know what's happening anymore. Where's the plot? I love spice but I also love good plot!

But I did enjoy some parts. There's just one chapter that I would like to think it didn't happen as I was so uncomfortable reading it (Chapter 17 😬). Was it really necessary to add this scene? I don't think so.

Kingdom of The Cursed is an exceptional addition to the Kingdom of The Wicked series! The adventure and mystery are high-stakes, with lots of twists to keep you throughly entertained! And the mouth-watering food descriptions and beautiful descriptions of clothing continue!
Exceptionally eager for the next instalment of Kingdom of The Wicked!

I WANT TO SCREAM THAT ENDING IS ILLEGAL!!!!
Now you’re telling me I’ll have to wait for book 3? 🥲

Reading this felt like watching a good Naruto filler. Not much happened until the last couple chapters, kinda setting the stage and building intrigue for the final book. N I’m not complaining, it did just that, so would you please gimme the 3rd book now?

⚠️ BEWARE OF CHAPTER 17 CONTAINS COMPULSION, GORE, BODYLY HARM⚠️

CW/TW: Mentions of rape, death of a family member.
