Incarnate by Jodi Meadows

3.0

I adored Jodi's Orphan Queen series, but had never read any of her other books, so decided to buy a copy of Incarnate after hearing really good things about it. Ana is strange in this world. She is a new soul, in a world where everyone is reincarnated after death, and her arrival coincides with the permanent disappearance of one of Heart's most beloved citizens. When she appears in the city, she is shunned, as others are afraid of her, and what her being a new soul means. Same is the only one who will help her and stand up for her, and a romance blossoms between them. However, the hatred of a new soul being in the city, especially when it is under attack from dragons and sylph, may lead to them being separated.

This book was strange. I liked the premise, and the world building, but still found something a bit lacking. Ana was very headstrong, and a bit too impulsive at times, but she grew on me, and her and Sam's relationship was sweet. I'm reviewing this over a year after reading it, and being honest, I can't remember too much about the book. I think I have the other books on my shelves somewhere, but am considering whether to offload them, because I don't think I'm invested in the series enough. Disappointing considering how much I love Jodi's other series.
