[Emily’s Review]: That Dark Infinity by Kate Pentecost

By night, the Ankou is a legendary, permanently young mercenary. By day, a witch’s curse leaves him no more than bones. Caught in an unending cycle of death and resurrection, the Ankou wants only to find the death that has been prophesied for him, especially once he begins to rot while he’s still alive….

After the kingdom of Kaer-Ise is sacked, Flora, loyal handmaiden to the princess, is assaulted and left for dead. As the sole survivor of the massacre, Flora wants desperately to find the princess she served. When the Ankou agrees to help her find the princess, and to train her in exchange for her help in breaking his curse, she accepts. But how can she kill an immortal? Especially one whom she is slowly growing to understand—and maybe even to love?

Together, they will solve mysteries, battle monsters, break curses, and race not only against time, but against fate itself.

[Diane’s Review]: The Nature of Witches by Rachel Griffin

I’ll just start off by saying this is one of the most beautiful books I’ve ever read in every aspect. From the poetic atmospheric language to the sheer beauty of this story I was truly invested. Rachel has a talent with bringing the seasons to life, their very essence seeping from the pages and into […]

[Gabrielle’s Review]: Witches Steeped in Gold (Witches Steeped in Gold #1) by Ciannon Smart

Can I say, this book was a love triangle of betrayals. The book was magical and Smart has an absolutely lovely way with words. Before I dive into my thoughts, one thing I want to mention is that if you have trouble following time jumps without labels, this book may be challenging at times, as […]

[Elizabeth’s Review]: The Dark Tide by Alicia Jasinska

I like to think Alicia Jasinska read Beauty and the Beast and thought: let’s make our beast a QUEEN and let’s make it dark. And I was totally and completely about it. This book focuses on two POVs: Lina Kirk and Queen Eva and they each have something to prove. The dynamic between Lina and […]

[Victoria’s Review]: Serpent & Dove by Shelby Mahurin

There are a few key words that, whenever I see them combined to describe a new or new-to-me book, automatically guarantees that that book shall shoot straight to the top of my TBR or Most Anticipated Lists. Witches. France/French/Francophile. Enemies-to-Lovers. There are others of course (dragons come to mind), but needless to say, all I […]

[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 […]
