Because we, as readers, have no emotional attachment to those characters and relationships. However, when the betrayal occurs, there is no emotional connection. I understand why it was done because that is how Isolde felt. We lose attachment to the characters we interact with because there is no trust. Which doesn’t help because there’s a traitor in Adrian’s inner circle, so every interaction makes you wonder if the person is telling the truth. As a result, we spend the entire book behind. However, she does not recall many details until after they would have been useful. I was hoping that now that Isolde has remembered her previous life, we would learn more about the characters. Now, as politics in the Red Palace grow more underhanded, inexplicable monster attacks plague the villages, and a deadly crimson mist threatens all of Cordova, Isolde must trust in the bond she’s formed with Adrian, even as she learns troubling information about his complicated past. With two opposing goddesses playing mortals and vampires against one another, Isolde is uncertain who her allies are in the vampire stronghold of Revekka. But their love for each other has cost Isolde her father and her homeland. Isolde, newly coronated queen, has finally found a king worthy of her in the vampire Adrian. As I share my thoughts, I’ll try not to give too many spoilers, but there may be a few (though I tried to be as vague as possible regarding the plot while still sharing my opinions on things). So I had high expectations for this book.

I read the first book in this series over a year ago and remember really enjoying it. Unlike the first book, we get multiple points of view. Clair’s Queen of Myth and Monsters is the second book in her Adrian x Isolde series. These help support the blog, so I can keep creating content.
