Blackwell Beasts, Book 2

De: Sadie Hunt

Narrado por: Michael Gallagher, Lilly Drake

I thought they were my enemies. I was right.

I invited the infamous Blackwell Beasts to live with me for one reason: to find out if they killed my brother five years ago.

They did the time, but did they really do the crime?

I thought I was prepared for anything, but deep down, I didn't want to believe they did it.

How could I when guitar-playing Wolf made me feel so safe? When quirky Otis made me feel so seen?

Even Jace, my MC bully, brought something to the table, pushing me to explore parts of myself I didn't know existed.

But now the truth is out: five years ago, my brother's best friends killed him.

Now, enemies are all around, and the Blackwell Beasts might be my best chance of survival—but only if I give them my body and soul.

Holy Cliffhanger!

I really hope the ending isn't really what it seemed! I will be on pins and needles until the last book hits audible tomorrow. Great narration!

It’s complicated

So this series is like something that you know isn’t that good but you can’t stop eating it anyway? The writing is repetitive many times and the way the fmc is written bothers me a little. The spicy scenes were better in this book but goodness her inner dialogue is super icky. But also I liked it??? I don’t know. It’s complicated. 🌶️ 3.5

Very excited for the second trilogy, but…..

I like to preface by saying, I only listened to the audiobooks and the performances are top-notch. It’s been a long time between the audio of the Kings to the beasts, and I’ve been on pins and needles waiting for the final book on audio. I loved the kings so much that I stalked the final book and waited to start the entire trilogy until the audio was coming out. Needless to say there has been a lot of time in between, therefore I can’t remember if the FMC Willow in the Kings was as naïve as Daisy in this trilogy, I don’t believe I would like it as much if she was so I’m gonna say no.

The storyline is great. The performances are great, but I’ll be nice by saying that naïveté of the FMC but what I really wanna say is this stupidity of her is really making it difficult for me to get through this one. I had high hopes for this, but I cannot wrap my head around how she can be so blind. She is in her head a lot, and she’s more concerned about the moral dilemma than she is about the problem and safety of her and the people around her. She is so blindly not connecting any dots and not opening her mouth about it.

It was stated in the first book that information is key in order to protect yourselves, and yet both sides kept information to themselves. The boys got on board by book 2, but she is still keeping information and being silent, not only is she being silenced, but she can’t put two and two together. Which is putting everyone in harms way. The other thing is, I just don’t understand if she loved her mother so much and she find out information. Why is she not asking the questions? Why is she not sharing the information? How can you be so blind when clearly your readers can see it. You can’t expect your readers to put things together when your main characters can’t.. It just becomes extremely frustrating….for me at least. I also feel that Sadie missed key writing by acknowledging that a conversation took place after but not actually telling us about the conversation.

I will say I will continue on to the final installment. I do know it’s a tearjerker at the end of this book (I think) cliffhanger but like I said, it’s very frustrating right now. And Im not sure it will get better.
