WINDING DOWN OF READER ROUND UP

  Good afternoon peeps  we are winding down this falls reader round up. This is the second to last book for you BLOOD HYMN  by Beth Hale


                           BOOK BLURB



I came back to Harlowe Parish with my sister's ashes and a stolen gun.

They called it suicide. I call it murder.

The autopsy I paid for doesn't lie: ligature marks, defensive wounds, and sedatives. Delilah was cleansed. Sanctified. Erased like dozens of girls before her.

I have six names. I'm crossing them all off.

Then I find Silas Cain standing over a body in the dark.

He was their monster once. Raised to kill for the family. Until he turned on them and painted the parish red. Now he's back, hunting in the shadows.

We strike a deal: his violence, my vengeance.


                         MY REVIEW
  There is something sinister going on in Harlowe Parish and Evie has come back with her sisters ashes and a vendetta to whoever did this to her . They called it an accident but she knows that it wasn't . Autopsy paper work doesn't lie. She has six names and each of them will be crossed off the list . When she meets Silas who was a monster at one time . He killed for family until the day he turned on them . Now he is back wants violence and Evie wants vengeance together they will survive. 

     Evie wants the truth on what was done to her sister . She is a whirlwind and is like a grim reaper doling out vengeance on those that took her sisters life and the lives of the women before her.  She is a dangerous woman hell bent on righting wrongs . She knows she might die but she is willing to get the truth out there. Silas is well he is a monster but what he is doing is righting the wrongs of his past. He is dark and kind of scary in so many ways. When they meet it is like a tornado coming down on you. Their relationship is dark, messy dangerous and so intense. Such well written characters and very complex 

  This is a Southern Gothic story of basically 2 lost souls looking for vengeance on those that wronged so many people. The author has a such a classic story telling style. The characters are well written and you know that they are evil. This is such a good story that will have you reading well into the night. Will be a good story for your halloween reading list
