This was a fun read. The writing style was simple enough and the characters were okay, I honestly felt this could have used some more fleshing out to make it better, but overall I'm not mad with it. A good middle of the road read, though I am definitely curious enough to continue the series

I have such a love-hate relationship with this author. The story and the plot and the character development are all so freaking good with her, but the dialogue makes me want to call my own eyes out. And I felt the same with FBAA.
It’s cringey and outdated and awkward, but given how good the storyline is, I am happy to move past it.
This is such a unique story that I did not see coming, and I am so excited to read the rest of the series.

First read from Jennifer Armentrout, even though I’ve been meaning to start From Blood and Ash for ages. I didn’t realize this was related to another series until I read the author’s note at the very end, and this does explain why I felt there was next to no world development here. So my bad on that one.
This book is in a really strange too immature, but still suggestive, place. At times I just thought it was way too young for me. Some of the word choices were just so juvenile that I honestly did roll my eyes (see “holy crapsicles”; “I felt about as tall as a banana, and I hated bananas”; and “I hit a DEFCON level of WTFery” as prime examples). It was just too much.
Trinity is an absolute Mary Sue in this book. So perfect, excellent swordsmanship skills, everyone instantly loved her. Her relationship with Zayne was so instalove. It seems that the author tried to compensate with super cringy flirting that just went on way too long.
All in all, wish I wouldn’t have started with this as my first book by this author. Sincerely hope From Blood and Ash is better.
1.5/5.0 stars for me.
