Blood to Dust by L.J. Shen
2.0
I was really looking forward to this book. It's my first LJ Shen book and as much as I liked the sound of it, I just didn't enjoy the characters.
Maybe it was the audio or just the fact that I couldn't click with the characters overall. I really enjoyed Beat and loved some of his more tender moments when he was with Preston. Preston's character confused me. She was so switched on at times and then came across as a dumb blonde in the next scene. I understand why she was doing it to make others believe it but when it was her own narrative, it really frustrated me.
There were a fair few characters and I did get confused with who played what role in this kidnapping and the whole grand scheme of it all. At the same time there actually wasn't that many characters but I just couldn't pin point who was doing what and master minding all this.
I will try and read some of LJ Shens other stuff because I have her books but this one didn't set me on the right foot.
