Blood Rose Rebellion by Rosalyn Eves
Did not finish book.
DNF at 55%. Ugh this is only my 2nd ever DNF and I hate not finishing books but I've been trying to get through this for a month and I just can't do it. Reading shouldn't feel like this much of a chore.
I actually loved the beginning of the book and really enjoyed everything up until the point where Anna left home. Learning about the magic system and seeing it in use was super interesting to me and I was actually excited about the book. And then a third of the way in it totally changed directions and got really slow and really boring. I wasn't a fan of the writing and it felt difficult to read because of how flowery the author tried to make it. I was either rolling my eyes at the metaphors or re-reading passages to try and figure out what was going on. This was not the book for me.
Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and the publisher for an ARC of the book.
