A lot of events unfolded throughout the novel, which was overwhelming, but it was understandable from the fact that the author had a desired flow of action for its characters. There was this push and pull manner that can end up frustrating readers as there are various challenges being faced by the heroine, one of which the other voice, as the demon inside Maia, really evokes that temptation to pull her on the evil side. In trailing for the last chapters of the book, there was still that confusion tugging at the character, making you choose between good and evil. Though I appreciated how the story ended with her troubles not solved just on her own but with the involvement of those she loved and has loved, it spoke of fairytales and myths, and it spoke of life and the ordinary.

pierwsza moja pisania recenzja od dłuższego czasu :D
ostatnio oglądałem Rayę i Ostatniego Smoka, więc podążając za dalekowschodnimi klimatami postanowiłem skończyć dylogię "krew gwiazd"
i nie żałowałem tego!
naprawdę, rollercoaster emocji do ostatniej strony
potwierdza to czas przeczytania przeze mnie tej książki, tj. dwa dni
im really impressed
bardzo się cieszę, że w drugim tomie przeważały te aspekty fantastyczno/przygodowe nad romantycznymi (które były przytłaczające w pierwszej części)
niektóre cytaty żywcem z literatury pięknej 
5/5
jeżeli podobał wam się pierwszy tom, to ten spodoba wam się jeszcze bardziej!

Honestly, I didn't care about any of the characters in this book. The only character that had some potential was Lady Sarnai but she ended up not doing anything either so overall I just found this book to be super disappointing.

I laughed, I stressed and I most definitely cried over this book. I wanted to savor every page and I am sad my journey with Maia has come to its end. Yet I my heary feels full with this sequal that was wonderfully crafted by Elizabeth Lim. Sequels are extremely hard to get right but she executed it perfectly in my opinion.
