The Serpent & The Wings of Night

My Current Read

📖 Name of the Book: The Serpent & The Wings of Night

📄 Plot: Human, raised by Vampire King enters the Vampire Hunger Games

📖 Genre: Fantasy 🦇 🩸

📄 My Favorite Quotes: “ There she is. “

💭 My Thoughts: Overall I think it’s a very nice read. However - It ended very quickly and almost irrationally. I liked the storyline the character development & found myself immersed into the story. I picked this book up because it was so highly recommended across social media. There are a few spicy scenes but not enough imo and it takes 80% of the book to get through to get to those few paragraphs.

⭐ Star Rating: 3.8

Book Two is on the way to me now.
