With Fire In Their Blood by Kat Delacorte
3.0
As much as this book gripped me from the first few pages, the plot fell short of being satisfactory for me.
Even with some exploration of the city and power through other characters in the book, I felt that the main character - Lilly - could only think about who she should kiss and fall in love with. Unless that’s explained in the following books, it there will be any, and it being part of a bigger picture it just seems to be a nuisance and her being extremely indecisive.
The plot was relatively paced in a good sense, but everything was essentially placed in Lilly’s hands, intentionally or just to continue on the story. It made exploration of the world a bit lacking but I do understand that it’s a strict city with rules that need to be known. There wasn’t much mystery and things start to add up quickly for the reader without much importance when it comes to it.
I did enjoy the book for what it was but I hoped for more.
