Received this book as an ARC through my work.

I really, really enjoyed this book! The story grabbed my attention from the get-go, and the characters had good development for the story line without too much extra detail thrown in. There were humorous parts, and a lot of little clues dropped like bread crumbs that I didn't always pick up on at first, but then started to come together at the end.

Didn't guess the ending throughout the whole book, and the last 100 pages flew by there was so much action and intrigue. Definitely a must-read if you enjoy a witchy fiction book, especially a historical setting at that.

This book started out really strong and I thought I was going to love it. I love how the story went back in forth from Ginevra's past and present so we were able to learn more about her and understand her better. However, the story started to drag about a third of the way through the book. The last 20%ish of the book really made up for it though. The humor throughout and towards the end of the book definitely helped to keep my attention though the slower parts of the story. 3.5⭐️ overall.
