✱✱Book Review✱✱ Death Be Blue by Katie Epstein

Death Be Blue 
The Terra Vane Series Book 1
by Katie Epstein 


She can glimpse visions of the past, present, and future but she doesn’t know when, how, or why. She only knows the outcome, and it doesn’t look good…

Being human is hard enough. Being human with psychic abilities is worse. It was for Terra Vane anyway, until she immigrated to Portiside. There she feels at home in the thriving city of the Fey, Shifters, Vampires, and other gifted humans.

Where there are many factions of creatures, however, crime and skirmishes are to be expected. With a stubbornness born out of years of being deemed a “freak,” Terra’s determination and unique ability serve her well as an Enforcer Field Agent for the Portiside City Agency. 

Alongside her annoying wolf-shifting partner, Kaleb, there is no case that is too strange to solve. No case too dangerous—until there is, and the trail of bloodlust leads them to unravel a mystery that threatens Portiside as they know it.

Momma Says: 2 stars⭐⭐

The premise is sound, the story sounds exciting and intriguing and moves at a good pace, but try as I might, I just could not get into Death Be Blue. In fact, I set it aside and came back to it numerous times, eventually making it to around the 60% mark before finally giving in and admitting defeat. I never did warm up to the characters, Terra in particular. I usually like a snarky, independent heroine, but for whatever reason, this one just rubbed me the wrong way from the beginning, which I'm sure played a big part in my feelings about the book. There is quite a bit of action, but the scenes are simplistic and just weren't very exciting, and most of the conversations were more snark than substance. When I made it over halfway through and realized that I had no feelings one way or the other about how this one would end, it was clear that this one was not the book for me.
