Seven Blades in Black

*I voluntarily read and reviewed and ARC of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. *

Now, I should start by admitting that I've gotten out of practice with reading longer books (450+ page books) and westerns and sci-fi books have always been hit-and-miss for me. This book is over 700 pages and a mix of fantasy, sci-fi, and western – pretty much guaranteeing that I would have to slog through this book.
And yet, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. 

Did I have to read this in sections and at times force myself through them? Yeah, totally.
Did the writing get on my nerves at times? I mean, yeah? I thought it was a bit wordy. 

But the story is awesome. I ADORE Sal and the side characters. The fact that she is telling this as a confession while arrested, made me giddy. The scenes in present time were such fun– although I also used them as my stopping points. 

I did think this was going to be a standalone too, so the ending had me confused, but I'm onboard to read the next one. If you like snarky, sarcastic anti-heroes set on revenge set in a complex world – this is a book you should read.
