As anger builds and feelings spiral out of control, it becomes clear that rage may be the ruin of them all....

 A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire Jennifer L. Armentrout  "He was both the villain and the hero, the monster and the monster - slayer. " Where do I begin? Honestly, I don’t know. When I read From Blood in Ash back in March, I thought it was my favorite book this year, and I also know I sound like an broken record, when I repeat over and over again how shocked but at the same time amazed I was, but this book really blowed my mind.

I read it back in March and let me tell you, I couldn’t be left any more shocked and speechless as I was and I was so caught up in the story, that I didn’t even realise there were vampires until it became official.

Poppy is torn back and forth between fulfilling her duties as the Maiden and actually living and being adventurous, and it tore my heart apart at one scene especially because it became clear ho...
