My World Ends With You
“Remember, my darlings… Evil will preach a gospel with half-truths. It smells good, but it lacks taste and substance.”
Fire, blood, and death… These seem to be the norm in this world. Everything that we’ve come to know, and love has been falling apart at the seams, and nobody knows why. Reality is shattering, the stars are turning black and dying. The anomalies are causing a rift between vampires and humans, destroying the peace that was achieved after countless wars and deaths. Now something else has come, something vile and insidious. Something that wants to devour what we have left. I hope Malkiel and Zaleska can stop it. I pray they can put an end to it before it ends us. Before, we end each other.

Dear Author!
Congratulations for being able to accomplish your goal of writing a phenomenal book. It’s really hard to write down your own story with such authenticity. I am surprised to see your creativity. You nailed it. It wouldn’t be wrong if I say that you have done a remarkable job. I am amazed to see how gracefully every character is playing its role. No, I am not lying. I am just being honest. (Just in case, if you think I am not being honest or lying).
There are multiple books that I read on daily routine but none of them have inspired me like this one. From interesting story to fun part, the whole story was just incredible. But wait. We can’t call it a story. I don’t think the word ‘story’ is giving it grace. Indeed, it’s a beautiful journey of Malkiel and Zaleska. I was touched so deeply by their chemistry. Apart from that, the character of her mother was also inspiring.
There was a moment when she had tears in her eyes after a flashback and he charms her with his sarcasm. Goshhhhh!! He stole my heart there..

OKAY!! THIS BOOK was like a roller coaster ride packed with vampires, demons, and lots of blood. The story had a slow pace, but I found it to be extremely engaging. The author did an excellent job of building tension and keeping me on the edge of my seat.
One of my favorite things about the book was the character of Seila. I found her to be a complex and relatable character, and I found myself rooting for her throughout the book.
Overall, I would highly recommend this book to any fan of vampire and demon fiction. The slow pace may not be for everyone, but I found it to be a refreshing change of pace from the fast-paced, action-heavy novels that are so common in the genre. If you're looking for a thought-provoking and gripping read, this is definitely a book worth checking out!

My World Ends With You is an action packed and fast paced novel perfect for any fan of vampires or paranormal fiction. It had the perfect blend of action, romance and humor with a touch of gruesome imagery that completely fit with the vibe of the book. Malkeil was my favorite character but all of them were so well flushed out including the other pov for the novel Zaleska. I loved the vampiric history and inter/family and department relationships that the author created for this world. Also the character art in the book- so good. Would 100% recommend reading it!

“Demons. It’s demons! The cause of all your troubles. The death of your, Defense of Secretary. The massacre that took place in that town in Colorado. It’s all demons. All of the weird happenings, the unexplained phenomenon that is occurring all over the globe, it’s due to reality shifting, causing displacements throughout the world.
Without the Reapers, Demons have been collecting souls to use as energy to break through the vale between realities. They’ve been doing this in order to access some...Outer God’s power, to break the gates of Hell”.
I came across My World Ends with You when I was looking for a book to read during my leisure time. Without a doubt, it’s one of the best picks in this genre. While the plot stands out from the rest of the fantasy and horror fiction, the wring style has its own flow and a distinct streak.
The plot of this book revolves around a group of vampires hunting for a demon and the story flows in a thrilling manner. Main characters Malkiel, Zaleska, Seila, and Ajal get so close to the mind of the reader, and the character build-up is admirable, that creates mental imagery in the reader’s mind so effortlessly. The fight between Malkiel and Demon got me so hooked and intrigued that I had to rush through pages just to see if Makiel is not harmed by the fight.
The writing style is superb and Thomas has done an excellent job in keeping the reader on the edge of the seat with a cinematographic writing style that builds tension page by page, smoothly and subtly.
This book is a brilliant piece of fiction that’s nothing short of a masterpiece. Highly recommended!

This was a really interesting story with likable characters, it could, however use a god once over from an editor.

First of all, let’s talk about the character art in this book! Stunning visuals were the first thing I saw in this book, and I was immediately hooked. And since then, I have only managed to fall more and more in love with this story.
I love books about vampires, demons, and all those exciting creatures, which was also what kept me interested in this book. I finished reading it reasonably quickly, which is an accomplishment for me, considering how long this book is. The main reason was the action-packed storyline that had me glued to my seat for hours.
Romance is my favourite genre to read and write, so this book had a lot of romantic moments that made me aww and squealed while reading. The comedy was not over the top, and the action scenes were nail-biting. I adore stories that make me so invested that I forget where I am, and this is one of the books that did it.
“My world ends with you” is a rollercoaster of emotions, one that I highly recommend anyone who loves romance should go on at least once. Definitely one of the best books I have read in 2023 so far!

The Main Characters are Zaleska and Malkiel, and they are Reapers.
Reapers were created to guide the souls of the dead to their rightful resting place.
Seila Adah is The Don of the Drăculești, a first-generation vamp.
"Seila received the embrace directly from one of the original Seven."
There are twenty-three families, and their "Dons" sounds like the mafia, yea?
Some of the Organizations
V.P.A, Fang Hunters, Night Stalkers, Council, Forsaken, Imperial Council, and Royal Guard
What You Need to Know
Prepare yourself for an epic rollercoaster ride. Get ready to kick some serious butt and dive into a world full of snarky characters and mind-blowing world-building. Brace yourself for non-stop fun and excitement like you've never experienced before!
And, omg, I wince every time someone gets flicked in the forehead, like PTSD, man.
But get this there are unlicensed vampires, which makes you wonder how you get licensed.
Quotes
"Reality quakes? Is that what The Entity has dubbed the anomalies as?"
"Malkiel, The Entity isn't like the Old Council, and we do not work for any country or government. We are a mix of vampires and humans who work together to better the world. We take orders from no one and move on our own accord."
"Malkiel, The Entity isn't like the Old Council, and we do not work for any country or government. We are a mix of vampires and humans who work together for the betterment of the world as a whole. We take orders from no one and move on our own accord."
"Ajal walks over to the unconscious Imperial Guard. "Excuse me, sir, if you can exit the wall, I would like to begin reconstruction now."
Ok, you had me at snarky, but then you added Barrow/Utqiaġvik, and poof, mind blown!
And there you have it. Just kidding, there's more, but I don't leave spoilers. So read it if you dare. Lol.

“If Hell opens, there will be nothing…any of us can do.”
Thomas Holiday knows very well where he wants to direct the book and he does it perfectly. In "My World Ends With You" we’ll have a very complete and well executed story, elements such as vampires, humans, the fight against demons, heaven and hell, good and evil, an inevitable war and the way in which they are developed are points in favor of the story and they make you unable to stop reading .He knows how to keep the reader hooked on the story and that it does not decay, as well as making us suffer and enjoy with the protagonists.
Action and intrigue are present in almost every part of the novel.
On the other hand, I’m also going to mention the characters, Wow! I loved them all. Each one of them has something special that makes you love them and want to read much more about them. In this particular book the ones who take the number one spot are Malkiel and Zaleska.
The great thing about this book is that all the characters in the story give us a little bit of themselves in the chapters. Being narrated in the third person allows us to see everything that happens around it. Also like the places, the situations, the dialogues, the interactions between the characters and the construction of the world are very well developed.
It has been a wonderful reading, full of emotions and feelings, endearing characters, interesting antagonists and an unparalleled plot. I 100% recommend this book.

I don't typically read vampire or werewolf books, so I'm not sure how helpful my review will be, but I'll give it a shot.
The plot of this book was incredibly unique, and I don't think I've encountered a similar storyline before. The chemistry between Malkiel and Zaleska was fantastic, with constant tension between them. There were numerous, well-executed fight scenes that I particularly enjoyed. It almost felt like watching an action movie, as the author's vivid descriptions made these moments the most exciting parts of the book. However, it's essential to note that this book contains some intense gore. I'm not usually triggered by blood, violence, or stuff like this since I'm a huge fan of crime novels but still, there were times when I had to pause reading, shut my eyes, and gather myself in because the descriptions of violence were too much to handle. If you're sensitive to these themes, consider whether this book is suitable for you.
Overall, I found the book enjoyable, with an writing style and storyline. A few minor improvements could make it a fantastic read for fantasy enthusiasts.

Wow!
this book was so amazing. The world building and the characters were just *chef kiss*
I absolutely loved Malkiel. He was so different from the rest of the characters. He was just his own person. And he was hilarious, even when he didn't try to.
Zaleska was also one of my faves, even though i got a bit confused about her story.
We knew from the start that these two were gonna end up together at some point. I really rooted for their love story in the beginning. But the more i read it felt like that spark between them disappeared. So i didn't really feel that connection when they got together.
This is a slow pacing book, but still it has lots of action to keep you hocked.
At times it got a little bit confusing, so i had to read the pages more than 1 time.
But overall this is a really good book. I recommend every fan of vampire books to give this a shot.

I'm someone who both loves gore and character development. My favorite mythical monster (along with dragons) are vampires, and the lore/world building here is so well done. Malkiel is a really cool protagonist and he not only makes me chuckle, but is just bad-arse (I don't think we can swear here, bummer). Seila is also really neat, I absoloutely love the caring-immortal trope. This book deserves all the praise and honestly I highly recommend folks who enjoy paranormal/dystopic fantasy with REALLY GREAT vampire lore to check it out.
One really important thing to note is that the stakes definitely feel high as well. There's a lot of really high-powered fight scenes going on, and each will have you on the edge of your seat, in my opinion.

First off I'd like to apologize for a late review.
This is a EXTREMELY UNDERATED high stakes fantasy. This was very much a deeply emotional book that seemed very driven by it's characters. It's a very well done story involving vampires and demons, which are usually so cliche I don't care for them - but this book does them so well and lovingly that I actually became invested despite my distaste for vampires (pun intended). It's pretty action packed and I'd warn on gore, but other than that its a great read.
Thank you to storyorigin for a ARC, I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Excellent world-building! While I found it slow at times the tension and character development along with descriptive world building made this book a win. This is honestly and action-packed, roller coaster ride of adventure and excitement. The book is worth picking up and reading.
I am hoping that this author continues writing more books - the talent for story telling is there.

I really finished this book in 2023. I just forgot to update my list.
This is a great book! The characters are engaging and keep you guessing. A recommended read! I’m on the hunt now for more from this author!

"Remember, my darlings... evil will preach a gospel with half-truths. It smells good, but it lacks taste and substance."
I've always loved vampires. I thought this would be another generic vampire book, but WOW, was I wrong. This entire story is well-crafted and extremely imaginative. The pacing is great and the world is thought out, and every new discovery, every moment that introduced the reader to something even better than the last situation was perfectly executed. This book is FAR from disappointing, and a refreshing take on vampires--and demons? Oh, yeah. A lot of the fight scenes felt like I was watching an anime, which was a lot of fun. There were even lines that had me laughing out loud.
The creepypasta and horror aspects were very well done and had me mesmerized. The creatures that were formed were highly terrifying. All in all, I loved every aspect of this story, and I recommend this for anyone who loves bloody vampire stories where vampires have been integrated into society (kind of reminds me of Tru Blood, come to think of it, but WAY better). This is definitely up there in my favorite books. It was a joy to read.
