Thanks NetGalley for the arc!! Though I didn’t know Traitors Hope was a sequel when I requested it, it definitely sparked my interest in reading the first one to understand this one better!

Thank you so much for the opportunity to read this book. Unfortunately I have been unable to get into it.

YES! YES! YES! I LOVE THIS SO MUCH.

Things I loved about the book

• Alternate POVs. We get to know about every character's thoughts and learn more about them. It's really enjoyable to read the story in multiple perspectives.

• The romance:
Mitsu and Mishi are so sweet together. Mitsu, after learning about Mishi's flaws, continues loving and supporting her. #ship!!!!
Kusuko and Taka!! Taka came out in this book and I love her even more :D Kusuko + Taka = perfect together!

• No grammatical/spelling errors! I'm can't stand it when people write "your" when they are supposed to write "you're". Same goes for "their" and "their".

• The action! The fighting scenes are all very detailed and I really enjoyed reading them. I also loved reading about the characters using their magical powers to defeat the enemy.

• The badassness of it all. Mishi's a warrior, Kusuko's an assassin and Taka's a healer. Together, they're invincible. Although they don't really trust one another, they are always willing to make sacrifices and help each other <3

• The happy ending. I love happy endings. Everything turns out to be alright not so messed up in the end, and I feel so happy for the characters!

Things I disliked about the book

• (I mentioned this in my review of Blade's Edge) The similarity of the characters' names - Mishi, Mitsu and we were also introduced to a little boy called Mizu. It. Was. So. Freaking. Confusing!!! My brain nearly exploded when I was trying to figure it out.

Overall thoughts

I would recommend this to fans of adventure, romance and diverse books! (Also oh my gosh when is the next book coming out? I can't wait to read it!)

I tried to enjoy this book, but unfortunately, it just wasn't for me.

Traitor's Hope

I am reviewing a copy of Traitor’s Hope through Artemis Dingo Productions and Netgalley:

If you have a teen/ young adult or are a teen/ young adult who likes Sci Fi &Fantasy then Traitor’s Hope is for you.

Mishi’s mind is betraying her and she fears she will soon be betrayed by her Kiso and Katana as well. And Taka’s heart abandons her for someone she could not trust.

Now two friends are obliged to help peace come to the land of Gensokai, the question is where the next betrayal will come and will the friends find the strength to survive what may becoming your way?

I give Traitor’s Hope five out of five stars!

Happy Reading!

Well I didn't realize this was a book two but I wasn't all that lost. This book was well written if a little slow. The world and characters came alive and I couldn't put it down. I really want to try book one soon and then reread this one. It was a very well written book with a wonderful story and great characters. If you are looking for a new fantasy to fall in love with check this one out.
