Blood Queen by Caitlin Denman
3.0
Thank you Netgalley for the free ARC.
We follow Queen Layla as her parents were murdered and she desperately tries to find the murderers. She is feared among her people as she is the Blood Queen (she murdered a man who tried to murder his daughter) and people witnessed it.
She is to marry the Prince of Garo. As she completes killing missions and meets Prince Rune, she notices that something is terribly wrong in her country.
SPOILER AHEAD.
This was entertaining but also dissapointing. It had everything to be a great story but the MMC (Prince with a bad rep and strength as his magic) was lacking backbone. He was strong but badly trained and also leader of a feared Clan? How does that work. Also clumsy?
The FMC is supposed to be a badass but she is annoyingly naive (and has major pickme vibes). 25% in and I basically predicted the whole plot. It was not surprising and predictable. Unfortunately the writing was very repetitive.
I really tried to like this. 2.5/5
