The Coven by Harper L. Woods

2.0

2✨️ Am I disappointed? Yes. Did I go in expecting it to be bad? Also yes, based on what I'd seen people saying, but alas it was a book club pick. The author wasted a cool concept TBH, this had the potential but the execution was poorly done. The writing was average at best. A chunk of the world-building was just dumped on the reader at the start. The pacing was totally off (not sure how else to explain it), so I read the initial 20-ish% fairly quickly, then had to push through until it got interesting again at the 80% mark, when the major plot points were revealed all at once (again, dumped on the reader). The smut was decent, though! Will read the next one purely out of curiosity.
