A review by meganlowe87
Empire of the Vampire by Jay Kristoff

adventurous dark tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

This is what happens when I don’t read the blurb.
I thought this book was going to be an epic vampire book, with the vampires being vampires in a way only Jay can write.
I did not expect what it was, which was sad and a lot but melancholy.
There wasn’t one particular character I liked, or anything that made me chuckle or had me hanging onto every word. In fact, I nearly DNFed this book a whole heap of times.
Such a disappointment for me.
