Katherine’s parents met singing opera and started taking her to choir practice when she was six weeks old. She attended four elementary schools and four high schools before getting master’s degrees in art and library science. So naturally she works in IT, abusing SQL Server for fun and profit. When she’s not working or writing, she’s probably playing the Sims or spoiling cats. Her greatest ambition is to rule the world.

Jay Kristoff, Bon Orthwick: Empire of the Vampire (EBook, 2021, St. Martin's Press)

It took me a while…

It took me a really long time to finish this one.

It’s an interesting book. A grimdark chosen one! With an interesting French Catholic feeling setting. I liked it but it took me a while to engage because I’m not big on grimdark. I got it from my library and couldn’t renew it, so I started ebook and finished audiobook. I… it took a while for the female characters to really come into their own, too, but this is remedied if you wait long enough. (Avoiding spoilers.)

So… yeah.
