Between Life and Death by Jaclyn Kot

5.0

DAMN!! This was on my TBR and I don't know what took me so long!!!

THIS. BOOK. I AM IN LOVE.

Sage knows that her magic is a death sentence in her home. The Cursed are considered abominations, therefore they are cleansed, a brutal display of power from the king and his followers. But when her brother is drafted as a soldier to fight for the king against his wishes, she'll trade her life in that cozy town for training with the cursed rebels.
There's where she'll meet Von, the mysterious leader of the Cursed rebels. Handsome, dark and dangerous, Sage will need to trade carefully around him, but when secrets start to unravel, she'll find out there were more things that hid behind that wall of mist that clouded her mind.

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!! New book obsession alert.

First of all, Sage? My queen. I loved her character so much and her determination to get her brother back. She will not back down from a challenge and is proud to be who she is. I loved when she got to know her little group of rebels. 

Von, DAMN THAT MALE!! I was BLUSHING every single page he was in, their first encounter AHHHHHHHHHHH. Yes, I am feral. Crazy. And in love. He is the perfect morally gray male, and I listened to the audiobook so EVERY TIME HE SPOKE, I had to stop and take a breath because EVERY WORD THAT CAME OUT OF HIS MOUTH WAS AAAGHHHHHHH. 

Aaaaanyway, I can't wait to know more about this story!! 

Ehm... THE END?! EXCUSE ME?!? WHAT. WAS. THAT. I have so many questions and SO MANY feelings I don't even know where to start, of course I'll jump right into book 2, I need ANSWERS.

Ezra and her rocks will forever be iconic.

Please, go read this book so you can fall in love with a dark, broody male, and then get obsessed with a whole other fantasy world that will transport you to another reality. I need more of these characters and story.

Love you all and happy reading 💋💋
