My Thoughts

CROSS HER HEART was different than I was expecting. The story and mystery kept me reading even though I didn’t really like most of the characters. There were difficult chapters to read due to the content, but I think it’s necessary to portray these types of things in media so we remember that some people have really shitty childhoods.

My Thoughts

I really enjoyed ROOTS OF DARKNESS. I’m glad we got to see what happened to the rest of the Blood Axe Crew after Rey left to save Silla from Jonas. I enjoyed being in Hekla’s head, witnessing her badassery and even her doubt. I liked her connection with Eyvind and look forward, hopefully, to seeing them resolve their conflict in future Ashen series books or another novella. I hope we find out what’s causing the mist since the novella just kind of left us there hanging after the immediate threat was neutralized.
