Cariad.

I’ve become a Bree x Sel shipper.

In all seriousness, this was a really good book. A lot of series tend to fall flat after the first book when its a duology or trilogy, but Bloodmarked was just as good if not better than Legendborn. BLACK GIRL MAGIC BABY!

I loved this book so much!! I loved how well it tied into the first one, I found the king Arthur stuff a bit less confusing the second go around!!

I really love how incorporated her rootcraft is, and how everything is revealed!! Like her being marked by the shadow king? Absolutely fucking amazing. I loved but also didn't love how she got with sel, But I mainly love it. The ending was so juicy!!

The biggest flaw I found with this book was just that it was very confusing to me, there would be pages and pages I wouldn't understand but I'd have to act like it. But all in all, I really liked it!!

This was a beautiful and powerful follow up to Legendborn. Picking up right after the events of book one we get to see Bree delve more into her powers and the history behind them. 

I did think this fell a little into the sequel syndrome trap, but overall and especially the ending it was a fantastic read. I am interested to see if the books will continue with the vibe of a poly feel between the main 3 characters too! And  I can’t wait to see where the rest of the series goes from here!
