allonsythornraxx 's review for:
Blanca & Roja
by Anna-Marie McLemore

I'm honestly so torn with this book. I loved Wild Beauty when I read it last year but Blanca & Roja left a really bitter taste in my mouth. I loved the first 100 pages and thought this would be a new favourite and then the next 100 pages introduced one of my least favourite trope in existence, then the next 100 pages were pretty decent and I devoured it, and then the last 60ish pages were boring as b*tsh*t, it felt like pulling teeth to get myself to finish this book.
