Bloodwitch by Susan Dennard

5.0

This book is a masterpiece. Bloodwitch takes the characters of the Witchlands on emotional journeys, heightens the stakes, and expands the world. This story complex yet fast-paced and strikes a perfect balance between being character focused and plot focused. In fact, Every POV is engaging, emotional, and has major importance within the story. Susan Dennard is a masterful storyteller and I’m always in awe at her beautiful writing and her ability to plant important seeds throughout the series. Like the previous books in the series, Bloodwitch made me immediately want to reread so I could take notes and form theories. I loved this book and I absolutely cannot wait for the next one!

Side note: While not technically required I strongly encourage everyone to read Sightwitch (the illustrated novella) before reading Bloodwitch. So many major plot points from that story come into play and while Susan Dennard is careful to fill in readers who might not have read it, you will definitely get more out of it if you do.
