The second installment delivers just as much excitement as the first! Nola, a kind and compassionate heroine, continues to win hearts. The shocking cliffhanger has left me desperate for the third book's release.

Nola is a great character in this series! I enjoyed this book as much as the first one but they should be read in order.  The boy she loved broke her heart and she begins think about Jeremy's love and how that makes her feel. I was left at the edge of my seat and I can't wait for more. *This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.*

I am not usually a dystopian reader, but I love this book! Especially for a YA read! I flew through the whole series in a few days!

Boy of Blood starts where book one, Girl of Glass, left off. This is not a standalone story. You do need to read the first book in the series to truly appreciate this installment.

The book starts with Nola waking up after the attack on the domes, a perfect world inside glass walls created for chosen humans. The other half of the population is relegated to living on the outside of the dome to suffer and die.

In this dystopian sequel, we follow Nola as she tries to move on from the attacks on the domes and the heartbreak from Kieran's betrayal. This book really takes the time to explain and develop Nola's character and her relationship with Jeremy. I didn't see this book as just another dystopian book. I'm actually tired of reading most of the dystopian YA novels out there because many of those books are so similar. What I liked about Boy of Blood is that this story mixes a little romance, a little paranormal fantasy with vampires and werewolves, and it all works really well.

This is a fast-paced book with a cliffhanger ending that leaves you wanting more. I highly recommend it.

I would like to thank the author and Fiery Seas Publishing for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
