My Review
Diamond Blood is a collection of short stories and poetry, along with some art, that will appeal to readers of most ages. Definitely more YA, but mature middle-grade readers may also enjoy some of the content within these pages. There is something for everyone, but I have to say, my favorite story is honestly probably the first one. It did the thing where it goes in a direction that was both expected but also unexpected. I kept thinking I knew what it was going to end up being, in terms of the "twist", but it ended up being something I hadn't considered. Same direction, different outcome.
The art included with each story is very Jackson Pollack in a way. It's eclectic, and I liked the addition of it to the book.
Overall, not a bad read. Not every story/poem will be a hit (and that's okay), but readers will be sure to find at least one, if not more, story or poem they consider their favorite.
4 stars!
