Blood Trial by Kelly St. Clare
4.0
Okay. This is going to be super short, because I'm already like halfway through book 2. But I wanted to write a quick note for my friends. And that note is:
Stick it out.
The opening of this book is roooooough. Basi is the worst, most TSTL, spoiled, poor-little-rich-girl character and I really, really wanted to punch her in the ovaries. I hovered on the verge of DNF for the first 25% or so because I just could not stand her.
But when the main plot gets going, man, it gets going. And she pulls her head out of her ass, and gets very interesting.
I'm not sure that it was necessary to make the opening THAT painful, but I can also recognize the value in showing a sharp character arc for Basi. And by the end, I was really, really hooked.
