Moon Blooded Breeding Clinic (Cambric Creek, #3) by C.M. NascostaMy rating: 1 of 5 stars
⭐ 1 Star (almost a DNF)
🌶️🌶️ 2 Spice
Reviewing this book is hard, because I spent most of my time in a nonstop battle between wanting to DNF it… or eat my Kindle just to have a reason not to finish. But I did push through even though I skimmed huge chunks because I just wasn’t enjoying myself.
It’s sad, because I really liked the first Cambric Creek book, and the second one was good too. This is the third book in the series and the start of the Hemming Brothers series (I believe), but big breath… the leads were pretty unlikeable for me. I felt completely disconnected from them, which made getting into the story nearly impossible. A few chapters in, I was reading through sheer mental willpower rather than enjoyment.
The spice technically existed, but because I wasn’t invested, I barely noticed it. Everyone in the book felt either “meh” or outright annoying, and that constant disconnect made the whole story hard to engage with.
Halfway through, I actually stopped, put my Kindle down, and told myself I’d try again the next day. I rarely give 1-star reviews, and I hate not finishing books, so I wanted to see if maybe it was just me. But when I came back, it was still just… hard. Really hard.
The storyline didn’t grip me at all. I wasn’t emotionally invested in the characters, so I found myself skimming and forcing myself through each page. Honestly, this has to be one of the hardest books I’ve read this year.
That being said, I have really enjoyed other books in this world, so I’ll maybe give it 6 months to a year and try again just to see if anything changes.
What I Liked:
Honestly, very little but I did like that Moriah and Lowell could make each other laugh.
What Didn’t Work for Me:
The storyline
The characters
The overall unlikability and flat interactions
Zero emotional connection
Would I Recommend This Book?
No.
Would I Reread?
Only to double-check my feelings. I dislike giving 1-star reviews, so I always reread low ratings in the future to make sure I still agree.
How I’d Sum It Up:
Emotionally disconnected, with unlikeable characters that left me struggling from start to end.
