[Emily’s Review]: Wild is the Witch by Rachel Griffin

After a night of magic turns deadly, Iris Gray vows to never let another person learn she’s a witch. It doesn’t matter that the Witches’ Council found her innocent or that her magic was once viewed as a marvel—that night on the lake changed everything.

Now settled in Washington, Iris hides who she really is and vents her frustrations by writing curses she never intends to cast. And while she loves working at the wildlife refuge she runs with her mother, she loathes Pike Alder, the witch-hating aspiring ornithologist who interns with them.

When Pike makes a particularly hurtful comment, Iris concocts a cruel torment for him. But just as she’s about to dispel it, an owl swoops down and steals the curse before flying far away from the refuge. The owl is a powerful amplifier, and if it dies, Iris’s dark spell will be unleashed not only on Pike, but on everyone in the region.

Forced to work together, Iris and Pike trek through the wilderness in search of the bird that could cost Pike his life. But Pike doesn’t know the truth, and as more dangers arise in the woods, Iris must decide how far she’s willing to go to keep her secrets safe.

[Diane’s Review]: Gallant by V. E. Schwab

Eerie And Utterly Devourable Read! When I first saw this book pitched as Crimson Peak meets The Secret Garden I really had no idea what to expect as I never really envisioned those two things intersecting. But Schwab really found a way to weave these two very different concepts into something both captivating and horrific. […]

[Lisa’s Review:] Prey (Blackwater Pack #2) by Hannah McBride

Prey is the second book in Hannah’s Blackwater Pack Series, and once again, she managed to enthrall me completely. I read this book chapter by chapter as Hannah was writing it, and it was the sweetest kind of torture you can imagine. Reading Hannah’s books is like falling down the rabbit hole. And you absolutely […]

[Lisa’s Review:] Storm and Fury (The Harbinger #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout

There are not enough words to describe my feelings when my girl Hannah handed me an ARC for this one at 2019’s Apollycon. I spent my days running around the Hyatt Recency in Arlington and my nights reading Storm and Fury as fast as I possibly could. I loved the Dark Elements series and was […]

[Lisa’s Review]: Rage and Ruin (The Harbinger #2) by Jennifer L. Armentrout

It’s no secret that Storm and Fury is one of my favorite JLA books ever. Naturally, the sequel Rage and Ruin was one of my most anticipated reads of 2020. By the time I received my ARC, I had been anxiously waiting for more than fifteen months. I read the entire thing in one sitting, […]

[Skye’s Review]: From Blood and Ash by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Ladies and gentlemen, Jennifer L. Armentrout has officially made her foray into high fantasy, and it’s as if she was always there. From Blood and Ash is classic Jen but on another level. It’s more mature, developed, mysterious, and swoon-worthy than any of her other books. Full of epic fight scenes, hilarious witty banter, heartfelt […]

[Bre’s Review]: War of Hearts of S. Young

“…you’ll come across more bad things this world has to offer. But don’t ever forget that there’s love and kindness in this world too.” I finished this book this morning and I already want to re-read it. I loved every part of Thea and Conall’s story. They were so strong apart, but once together they […]
