I received a free copy of this book from the author for an honest review.
Persecution is a paranormal romance for the New Adult audience. It centers on the life of a young woman and her importance to a race of people. The race are hybrids of witches and vampires. They are powerful, fast, but don’t feed on blood often. They are known as the Dyphillum.
The first thing I want to point out with this book is its length. It is eighty-six pages long. With the writing style, it feels shorter than that. I was gripped in the prologue, but the rest of the book needed help.
I personally feel that the book is unfinished. I wanted more detail. I wanted to experience what was going on. The last chapter did that that, but I wanted the rest of the book to reflect that. The two different point of views felt a bit confusing too. I wanted to understand Cecily better, but I couldn’t get into her with every other chapter being Isaac. Even though he had the same situation, he was easier to understand in motives.
I don’t like giving books low ratings, but because it was hard for me to connect with the main character and the story felt unfinished for me, the book is a two out of five (in Goodreads ratings). I would love to see the book rewritten with more detail. I wouldn’t say no to the sequel either. I did preview a sample of it and it looks like there is a bit more detail than this book.
