A review by val_theburrowofstories
Beyond the Black Door by A.M. Strickland

Did not finish book. Stopped at 22%.

 (Tried to read this in March 2024) 

• I started it one day and 10 days later I decided to DNF. It just wasn’t interesting at all, not much was going on and the little it did I didn’t care.
• Even before starting it I thought about just taking the book out of my TBR but I decided to try anyway because it has asexual rep. But it didn’t work for me.
• I think we could’ve been okay without the constant reminder that her step brother looked at her with bad intentions???
• I don’t think I’m missing out by DNFing this. It was just going to make my reading slump worst and I was bored, so bye bye.

Graphic: Blood and Death of parent

- Death of parent / Blood: It happens maybe around 15% into the book so is it really that big of a spoiler? But yeah, her mother is killed horribly in front of her.
