A review by thebookishmechanic
Blood & Steel by Helen Scheuerer

adventurous medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

I found this book to be really predictable. Like I knew what was going to happen long before the characters did. This was supposed to be a romantic fantasy? where is the romance? There was very little chemistry between our leads.

Where did Cal and Kip go when she was fighting for her life? It was super obvious that Ren knew about the magic. It was super obvious that Malik know about her lineage.

I know it sounds like I didn’t like this book but that couldn’t be further from the truth. I throughly enjoyed it, I just wanted more from everything.
