Reviews

5/5 Stars

"Amazing book- although I didn't particularly care for one of the three main characters' pov, Alice's, even though I truly tried. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a sapphic vampiric romance."

— Mikayla (5/5)

Good story, but buyers may be surprised by the gen

"Plot or Premise The choices made by three women intertwine from 1532 (Santo Domingo de la Calzada), 1827 (London), and 2019 (Boston). What I Liked The stories and world building are quite good, bringing 1532 and 1827 to life as the characters explore for the first time outside of their homes. The interchanges are lively, and I think I enjoyed 1827 the best. Rich, vibrant, and a sense of change. What I Didn't Like The description of the plot leaves out a very crucial fact, one that isn't revealed until about a fifth of the way into the book. Which is critical to choosing the book, critical to enjoying the book, and even critical to just understanding it. I thought the book was about witches and revenge on men, particularly the description of Boston in 2019, but it isn't quite that genre at all. I really didn't enjoy the descriptions of 1532, and without knowing where the story was going to go, I almost gave up on it. It was bleak and boring, with the main character of the era seemingly both proactive and smart at first and later just completely passive and rather dull. I won't spoil the genre, there are clues in some of the descriptions, but I almost missed out on quite a good saga over the centuries. I bought this book as a gift for my niece as she's into fantasy and some horror, and I'm trying to decide if I ""spoil"" the genre before she gets to the reveal. The Bottom Line Good story, but buyers may be surprised by the genre"

Feels stale after Addie LaRue

"Despite loving Addie LaRue, did not enjoy this conceit or story"

She did it again

"Amazing. I loved The Invisible Life of Addie Larue and with this book she did not disappoint!!!! It’s more slow pace than most books but so worth it. You get such an in depth understanding of each character and you learn to love and hate them all at the same time."

— Alyssa (5/5)

Who Needs a Plot

"Where was the plot in this story? It easily could have been300 pages shorter and accomplished the same thing. Schwab is, as always, a beautiful writer, but this book leaves much to be desired."

Easy read, twisting plot and a new take on the vampire myths

"This was a great, easy summer read. The plot left me guessing what was coming next and how certain characters were connected. It really had an “Interview with a Vampire” feel to it, but with some added feminism."

— Steph (4/5)
