Bonds That Beckon (Daughters of Anubis Book 1) by Kelli Kimble – Review by Liz Vrchota

Bonds that Beckon by Kelli Kimble
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was an interesting read for me. I wanted to read it the moment I finished the blurb and saw the cover. It may be geared or marketed towards young adults but this is a genre I normally devour fastly no matter what. This book was hard for me to get into. I did enjoy the idea behind it with it being about a young girl who just wants so badly to fit in with those in her small and narrow minded town, but unfortunately she is different and has abilities that will make that even harder to achieve this. I think this book could have had a bit more. A bit more character history and a bit more drama, maybe a bit more intensity and I would have been sucked away for a few hours. Instead I felt like this was more a second draft. I will definitely give the next book a shot and see if we have increased all these areas I wanted in. If it sucks me in I may revisit this one too. Overall this was a nice and easy read just not as exciting as I was hoping so I am gonna give it a solid 4 star review for now.
