The Blood Trials by N.E. Davenport

adventurous tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

The main reason it’s not 5 is because of a honestly pointless sex scene and quasi romance that felt shoehorned in and entirely out of place. Otherwise I really enjoyed the book.  The world building could have been slightly more fleshed out, but I don’t think it ruined the experience.  We learned enough and could fill in other things as needed.  I found the characters grey, which makes them very compelling. And it did keep you guessing.
