A review by emilyb_chicago
A Magic Steeped in Poison by Judy I. Lin

3.0

This was such a cool and unique magic structure. However, it ends in such an enormous cliffhanger that I was frustrated rather than excited about the next book.

The book starts feeling like a fun and normal YA book, but as the fascinating magic system is revealed the plot starts taking unexpected twists. I overall enjoyed this book a great deal but would struggle to recommend it without the cliffhanger warning.
