“The God of Endings” introduces a new twist on vampire stories ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆
A strong first novel is always an interesting reading experience, and The God of Endings , by first-time novelist Jacqueline Holland, left me thinking for a good long while after I turned the last page. I thought about the scope of the story I had just read, about all that it had encompassed and the unique take on blood-drinking immortal beings that the author had devised; I also thought about what I felt was missing from the book as it is, places where I was left craving a bit more background, more detail. (Not that that’s a bad thing – a sense of completeness and finality when you finish a good book can be a good thing, but so can a sense of mystery or longing. The little frisson of excitement that traces up your spine when you finish a book that leaves you wanting more is a tantalizing sensation.) It has in common with many novels of the genre a protagonist who is introduced into the eternal life unwillingly and who is forced to navigate their way through this strange new world
