Divine Violence by L.K. ReidMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
(I'm rating up because I would actually rate this a 3.5. For my rating scale that is basically, I really enjoyed this book, but I wouldn't reread it. However I want to mention, this is a prequel novella and I am extremely interested in the remainder of this series!)
Talk about a quick ride.
This was such a quick and intense ride.
This is the first thing I have read from this author and a huge thank you to Julia Murray PA & the author for sending this ARC for an honest review.
This started a bit slow for me, but not in a bad way. I found the pacing here to match the overall theme and it created the perfect atmosphere and vibe for the book. I was instantly hooked even though I'm not usually a detailed reader. There wasn't much dialogue for the first bit of the book, something I usually don't like and yet... here it was perfectly used.
Without spoiling, there were so many twists and turns that I honestly couldn't put the book down. What I thought I knew, and at times when I thought the FMC was crazy and the story was going off track, it's just because I didn't know the full picture.
I absolutely loved the ending. It was spooky and haunting and I'm really excited to see what happens next in the series. For a prequel novella, this is exactly what I needed to give me a little insight into this story and the characters.
Overall, I found this to be a great quick read to keep you on the end of your seat with spice that wasn't overdone. It had a spice in all the right places that made sense to the plot.
I'm still thinking about that ending.
