I am so excited to get into my opinion of Sanguis City, click on over and read the synopsis here.
Now. Here goes.
How do you survive The End?
Become a Doomsday Prepper?

Um, okay. How about if you're rich and powerful?
Well. How about if you're a smexy Bleeder named Lilanoir
Rue, a cross between vampire and human who is a product of her environment and a
byproduct of the world’s destruction and she's pretty much amazing?
You get a prize of a high five.
Another vampire
novel, Maria? You went there?
Dern skippy I went there.
Don’t fight it. Just
let it happen.
Sanguis City is not your average vampire novel, ladies and
gentlemen. There’s no brooding female
needing to get bitten to confirm her life. There's no super hot vamp--Oh, wait. Yes, there's that. But you'll like that part. Trust me.
What we have in this book is Noir. And she’s pretty
much a hot mess. You will love her for
that, because I certainly did. The
author made her seem relatable in a genre that is sometimes difficult to relate to. Noir has always been an outsider; she should be brooding. She should be bitter and resentful. But she's none of that. She's looking for love and justice and does what she has to do to find both.
The book wasn't difficult for me to get into at all. I point this out because I am pretty jaded from the mass amount of paranormal and fantasy on the market these days.
Sanguis City is one of those stories you don't just read, you become involved emotionally and physically (yes, physically . . . just . . . I can't say why just, I mean, you have to read it). The main characters are developed well, and there is just the right amount of development in the supporting characters to make you not question what's going on or why this or that is happening. There is so much going on in this novel, and the author lays out the story in a way that is just brilliant and enjoyable. I cannot wait until the next book.
Oh, right. I didn't mention. This is definitely going to be a series.
Yes, there’s a cliffhanger.
Yes, you’re going to be sad about the cliffhanger. But you know what? You’re going to pull your big girl panties
up, belt those bad boys and hang on for the next installment with a smile on
your face.
See what I did there? A little positivity for you in these dark times of cliffhangers.
Well get out those rocketship undies and keep it--
You know what? I'm not Dr. Phil and I can't sort through your dramatics in a book review. So you're just going to need to grab a copy of Sanguis City for yourself and be patient. If you already have a copy, read it again to fulfill your fix. You're welcome.
