Promising but not worth the hype
This Blood That Burns Us had an intriguing premise, but it didn’t quite deliver. While the vampire fantasy elements and the intense emotions were promising, the story often felt disjointed, with pacing issues that made it hard to stay fully engaged. The characters struggled to evolve, leaving their motivations feeling unclear and the plot twists unimpactful. Though the author’s descriptive writing style had moments of beauty, it sometimes overpowered the storytelling itself. If you’re a fan of vampire fantasy, you might find some redeeming qualities here, but it didn’t leave a lasting impression. 🩸🖤
Oh well. This book was so hyped on social media, my expectations were high. And unfortunately they weren't met. All throughout the book my thoughts were: Meh, I don't like this. But I wanted to finish it to see if the ending might make this whole reading experience better. Well, it didn't. It only got worse tbh
