While not perfect, The Toll is a satisfying ending to one of the most unique and intense YA trilogies I’ve read this year.

Mini Book Reviews: One

Recently I sped through a couple eARCs and I wanted to get reviews out for them ASAP. I had seen the awesome Sabreena over at Books and Prosecco do a series of Mini Reviews and I thought that would be the perfect way to do these reviews. Without further ado, I present my mini reviews!

In Amélie Wen Zhao’s debut novel, Blood Heir, we are introduced to a cold world filled with magic, oppression, revenge, and betrayal. Though not without its faults, Blood Heir is a solid debut and a strong start to a thought-provoking series.
Rating: 3.5 stars

Stellar rep and an amazing base concept, yet this one fell painfully flat for me due to cliched characters that I never grew to care about and an overabundance of ideas that made the story feel bloated.
