Sarah J Maas has been an author that I have wanted to read more of for some time now. When I saw this on NetGalley, I quick clicked it, BUT…
MY REVIEW
Every so often, I hop over to NetGalley to see if there is a book there than I must have. When I saw House of Blood and Earth, Crescent City #1, I immediately clicked and was approved for this exclusive extract. I was disappointed, because I clicked so quickly, I didn’t realize it wasn’t for the completed novel. 🙁 I have my fingers crosses that I’ll get a copy, because the ending was to die for.
It took me a while to get involved, as Sarah J Maas introduced the characters and the world they live in. The more I read, and the more I got to know the characters, the more deeply involved I became…BUT, be careful who you become attached to, because the ending blew me away and took me in a direction I didn’t see coming, which Sarah did in a bloody and twisted way. I applaud her.
I think we have every supernatural entity that you can imagine, and maybe some you can’t, along with humans. They walk side by side…
I flip back and forth between 3 and 4 stars…because of that ending. One way or another, I will get me a copy. I have to know!!!!!!!

I’m sitting here patiently awaiting the release date so I can buy it lol
oh man, i can so relate
I stop by NetGalley every once in a while to look for books too. I’ve found a couple in the past couple of months. This sounds like it was a good start.
oh, it is. now, i really, really want it. 🙂
I hate that they are putting so many excerpts on NetGalley. I want the whole book! This does sound really good and I have wanted to try this author for a long time.
this is the first time it has happened to me, but i’ll be more careful in the future. i don’t want to be teased and feel forced to buy the book, plus them wanting a review for an excerpt.
I have done that so many times, gotten all excited and clicked on a book not realizing it was just a sample. I hope you get the full book. 👍✨
I have the first three Throne of Glass books and the prequel bind-up as ebooks. It wasn’t until after I bought them that I realized they were about assassins. I don’t mind books with assassins in them just not all the main characters being assassins. Thank goodness they were all on sale when I bought them. 😏
