This second part of the Lotus War was much easier to get into than its predecessor, though some parts still dragged a little, I found myself not wanting to put this book down (but hey, we all have to sleep sometime).There was some predictability, some twists and, a few slaps in the face just to keep...

Kinslayer by Jay Kristoff Book 2 of The Lotus War trilogy **Because this is the second book in the series, there will likely be some information in this review that will give away pertinent information in the first book. Continue at your own risk, or skip this review until you've read both books. ...

Kinslayer by Jay Kristoff Book 2 of The Lotus War trilogy I really feel awkward being one of the dissenters in the whole Lotus Wars trilogy fan-love here, but to be totally honest, this book just felt like a long, drawn-out hot mess. Either that, or it's just me and I just didn't really get what wa...

Not bad but didn't really pull me in or make me care enough about the characters, I wanted more of Hana than anyone else but overall it left me feeling a little underwhelmed.

Kinslayer took me a while to read and I have no idea why. It is a really good book, but it just was not grabbing as much as I wanted it to. The book is clearly building up to a big finale. There's a lot that happens in this book to set up for that and introducing new plotlines as we go. A lot doe...

I just checked out the American book cover; the art just nails the tone of these books. Yukiko, goggles around her neck looking bad-ass whilst a Dragon and an Arashitora battle behind her? Fuck yea! I just don't dig the more subtle English covers of Yukiko doing yoga by waterfalls. I'm posting a pic...

I really did not intend to read this book. I feel like I got my fill of/said my piece in the Stormdancer review, and who wants to retread? (other than Kinslayer, BA-ZING) So you guys (and I!) can thank Shiori and my pitiful resistance to peer pressure for this, another miserable two-month, 500-page ...

I was one of the bloggers that raved about Stormdancer last year. And while Kinslayer was a mindblowing follow up to that book, it was also different in many ways. Some of which I liked, and some not so much. I like to mix it up a little, so I am going to do this review in sections again. Characters...

This book blew me away! Totally and completely had me in awe. The ending was an action packed movie that had images of aerobatic fight scenes with big ass swords and coordinated duals that would make dancers jealous. It was a delightful tale full of plot twists and revelations and had me gasping ...

Remember how I struggled with Stormdancer? How I was tortured between my love of Yukiko and Buruu and my very real concerns with racist and sexist content? Well I’m happy to say that the only struggle with Kinslayer is putting into words what a forward leap I find it. Read more and enter to win my...
