The Blood Phoenix

Amber Chen

DID NOT FINISH: 79%

It was really disappointing, I liked the first book in this series and I had really high hopes that this book would be a good conclusion to the series. But instead the plot was slow and boring, the characters didn't recieve any more development from the first book and the world building was lacking.

This is just a copy of six of crows in a different world with vampires. The plot was ok, but not particularly creative.

This book was a bit slow in the beginning but had a good twist. It's not very memorable though.

This was a really good book, the character development was definitely one of the best I've seen in a ya contemporary book. And I think the author did a very good job of incorporating a lot of different topics that are important in real life.

Love the characters. I hated the ember in the ashes, but when I read this book, I was pleasantly surprised. The world building was better, and the plot was more complex and unique. So were the relationships. It was pretty spicy for a ya book though.

I love James. I was expecting a bit more from Rosabelle, but her character is pretty unique.
I'm really sad about Kenji and Nazeera😭 I feel like they're going to get back together though. I found it funny that brendon thought Winston was too old, im sorry.
