I loved the magic and the unique plot to this book, but it ended up dragging along in parts and there were a couple of plot holes that were not explained well. I got this for free on a "stuff your kindle day" though and was pleasantly surprised!

"Gravebriar" is a young adult fantasy novel centered around Castor, a teenage witch living in a society that persecutes magic users. When Castor's powers are discovered, she becomes a pawn in a deadly game and must navigate betrayal and intrigue to survive. The story combines elements of magic, romance, and rebellion, offering a thrilling and atmospheric tale of a young witch's struggle for freedom in a hostile world.
