I REFUSE TO TORTURE MYSELF MORE THAN I ALREADY DID WITH THIS BOOK.
I thought From Blood and Ash had zero plot. Or maybe the plot was invisible. Then I tried the second book and realised this one has even less plot than the first one. After that, I tried this trash. And guess what! Turned out this one has even ✨less✨ plot than the second one which I thought wasn’t even possible.
Ugh, this book made me realise I'm not giving enough credits to my history classes. Seriously, those never-ending history lessons were less boring. I know, you're probably thinking how can I judge a book I didn’t even finish but I did..I mean I read about three hundred and fifty pages and I believe I gave this book a fair chance. And it's just so boring I can't believe I actually managed to read that much.
So the plot:
-nothing.
Wait there is some inner jokes you might like.
Example:
Cas: 👁️👄👁️
Poppy: Oh,my gods! That is so inappropriate!
Me: dramatic much?
Also, this:
Poppy: I have a question.
Kieran: NoBoDy iS sUrpRisEd bY tHaT.
And this:
Cas: Poppy remember that one time you stabbed me in the first book?
Poppy: yeah. What about it?
Cas: ThAT wAs sO HoT.
Poppy: .....
My lost braincells: .....
Don't forget this:
Poppy: *gracefully breathing*
Cas: I'M SO UNWORTHY OF YOU.
Look we get it Poppy is SO BADASS and stabbed you. But GET OVER IT!! IT’S BOOK THREE FOR GODS SAKE!
Also, Readers: So how powerful is Poppy?
Jla: YES.
Poppy is such a special snowflake, she has every kind of power. And she's like expert at every single one of them. I wonder if she can fly. I bet she can if she just put her mind into it. And everybody would be like: "oh my gods you are so special and we are so unworthy of you." give me a break!
Meanwhile there were some history lessons nobody cares about. It’s like JLA suddenly discovered these books are getting so popular why not start dragging them to six more books huh? Everything is so repetitive it's not even funny. Same jokes, same dialogue, boring QaA between Poppy and Kieran it's just awful and a hot mess.
I heard the last 10% are really good and probably some things actually happens but I refuse to waste more time of my life on this book. It's not worth it.
I can't believe people are "murdering trees" in order to publish this not so long book. My condolence to those trees.

lol thanks, honestly this book is weird. All the characters has weird names like " Tawny", "Hawke", " Penellaphe", "Teerman". Also, they calls Vampire as "vampry". The protagonist stabbed someone in the first book this one time and everybody is talking about how "badass" and "oh not like other girls" she is for like an eternity. Idk why am I reading this, maybe i just like to torture myself. 🤦♀️
Yeah, somebody definitely should make her stop! 😂
Ikr? Why isn’t more people acknowledging the fact that THIS BOOK HAS ABSOLUTELY NO PLOT.
Lol *her cult*? 😂 I can't stop laughing.
So thank you for keeping me from 600+ pages of suffering
Hey are you talking about Fantasy of Frost? Tell me you are. Cause I totally got deja vu. It's like reading same book but as "popular" and "unpopular".
The reviews are so biased it's sad to read them. They are misleading so many people.
I should be honest, i never liked her that much. But somehow I still wanted to try From Blood and Ash cause "the hype". Never got so disappointed even though I had ZERO expectations.
It's called "money making". I didn’t know about the two spinoff series. Like what would she even write? It doesn’t even have a plot yet.
She is totally milking the cow. 😂
Oh no! How do I unsee the "I'm a special snowflake" thing? 😂 now I'm so glad I DNFed it.
Trust me, compared to this one the first two books are kinda tolerable.
Well she also copied Vampire Academy in one of her series. It’s called Halfblood something I guess? And I heard so many times that she literally copies a lot of indie works. So I'm really not surprised this time.
Agreed, and now there's gonna be SIX BOOKS. I wonder how can she stress this story that long!
Thanks Lara. :)
It doesn’t get better. I should have stopped after first book too.
Can't wait to see your reaction Elle. Happy reading.
Keep reading, you’ll find more *similarities*. 😂
I know! I prepared myself for all the smutty scenes but it was still gross.
I know right? Nothing happens until the very end or so I've been told.
Thanks for the information. I already know some spoilers but I'm just don't care anymore about what happens to Poppy and Cas.
You’re more patient than I am I guess 😂
Thanks Viktoria. :)
No, there's a lot of us 😂
