I liked the first book a lot. This one started out well for me, but I found it seemed to drag near the middle. However, the ending was very satisfying. ( )

A great conclusion to Blood Like Magic, I would love to see one-offs with some of the background characters. Voya and her family have to deal with a lot of adversary in this book. Voya does a great job of developing her identity as the Matriarch, I loved the way she brought the family together. I cried a few times reading this novel. I am very much looking forward to reading more books from Liselle Sambury in the future. ( )
