Week 29 Review: Blood & Honey

From Goodreads:
The hotly anticipated sequel to the New York Times and IndieBound bestseller Serpent & Dove—packed with even steamier romance and darker magic—is perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas.

After narrowly escaping death at the hands of the Dames Blanches, Lou, Reid, Coco, and Ansel are on the run from coven, kingdom, and church—fugitives with nowhere to hide.

To elude the scores of witches and throngs of chasseurs at their heels, Lou and Reid need allies. Strong ones. But protection comes at a price, and the group is forced to embark on separate quests to build their forces. As Lou and Reid try to close the widening rift between them, the dastardly Morgane baits them in a lethal game of cat and mouse that threatens to destroy something worth more than any coven.

My Review:
Wow, this book was so fantastic! I loved being with these characters, watching as they further dealt with their struggles-and boy, do they have some struggles in this book! Loved reading as they figured out a plan to deal with Morgane.

Both Lou and Reid have issues that they need to deal with. Lou with the plan of having to kill her mother, Reid with magic, with his mom, and what he did at the end of Serpent & Dove. And some of that boiled into their relationship with one another.

We did meet new characters along the way, like Coco's aunt and the rest of the blood witches, which introduced a new plot point that I really enjoyed. Plus there were the other allies, and there was one in particular who was really interesting, and with that ending, well, there's a story there! I want to learn more!

That ending! Oh, man, it was just evil! I mean, Coco did a prediction, so we had a vague idea of what was going to happen, but oh, man, it was just hard to read! And then it was a cliffhanger ending, and I just need to read more!

Loved reading this book, it was just so fantastic, and I can't wait for the 3rd book!
