Song of the Dawn by Angela J. Ford

◦ I've received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review ◦
Song of the Dawn has been an interesting read for me. It's been a long while since I've read a NA book entwined with fantasy and mystery.
The mystery from this book has been really delicious, especially with the spooky season and that gloomy feeling that I feel all around me. The NA part of this book has been spicy! I can't say it has been very smutty but I can say that it will make you blush. Even tho I'm not a shy person whenever I read some more naughty things in books I always find myself getting a little bit shy.
The pace of the book has been pretty slow till towards the end when things started catching a faster pace. The pace of the book didn't affect my pleasure of reading, in fact, I've found it perfect for this type of story for the pace to be a little bit slower. I didn't feel there is any character development because the heroine didn't have to go through a lot of life experiences to need to change and grow, but I loved the fact she didn't cower when was faced with different situations and just put her big girl pants and fought through it. And I really loved the fact she wasn't shy of letting her desires show, she knew what she wanted when she wanted and that was an empowering thing because even girls love sex and I loved that from the book.
There were a couple of moments where I couldn't get those butterflies or those big emotions that will shake me to my core and I had trouble with that a little bit because I'm big on feeling my character's feelings and just immerse myself into the story and lose myself - which happened, but I felt a little bit disconnected on some instances when came to their feelings. Overall I loved the story and is such a great book to read during October.
