Eternal Echoes by Ophelia Reign
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
3.0
let me start by saying this is a STRONG 3 ⭐️ i’m going to try to explain my feelings about this book as nicely as possible and hope it makes sense.
- i LOVE magical realism. seriously, it’s my favorite. i thought the existence of vampires and reincarnation was super interesting and different from anything else i’ve read
- that being said, i needed more background on the witches, vampires, and overall more insight into the magic in general. i was often confused. with stronger world building and character background info, this likely becomes a 4⭐️
- i don’t like to knock indie authors for this, so it doesn’t factor into my rating too much but it may for other readers: there were quite a few grammatical errors. i normally wouldn’t take notice if it was three or less, but there were easily more than 10.
- the author highlights relevant social and political issues in an effective and important way and i was so glad to see it.
- the romance was so GOOD; the characters were likeable (both main and side) and i was so invested in their development. mmc was protective & obsessed. fmc was independent & assertive.
tldr: likeable characters, grammatical issues, interesting magic that needed more background, well done social & political commentary
