5.0
A fast paced urban fantasy reminiscent of what I love in contemporary fantasies! This is more of an origin story for our protagonist, Cassandra, as she yearns for more in her small town life, and learns of her powers on her 27th birthday, as well as the supernatural world she suddenly finds herself drawn into.
There’s lots of action, classic mythological creatures, and some romance, and Cassandra is a likeable protagonist. Her familiar is a 150-pound wolf named Koda (also, I want my own Koda!) and she has a tight friend group. This book is under 300 pages, so it’s a fast read.
This is told in first person from Cassandra’s POV throughout.
Ends on a cliffhanger, but this is book 1 of a series and I’m interested to know where it will go next.
