The Lost Witch: A Novel by Paige Crutcher

3.0

I wanted to love this one, I really did. The concept was great, the characters were unique, and obviously there was magic! I highly enjoyed the characters and their relationships- especially the sassy banter between Brigid and Knightly. I felt like it was a little too slow paced in some areas and the plot wasn't deep enough to warrant the pacing. If it had either been faster-paced or the plot was deeper than surface level this would have been a hit with me.
I definitely enjoyed it but I did not fall in love with it. Perhaps it is just a matter of taste for me, but it felt like the voice and tone of the writing was a little... scattered. I wasn't able to lose myself in the world Crutcher was creating and found myself confused in other places.
I have to say my favorite character has to be Finola. She is the sassiest of characters that cares very little about how the world sees her and is as true to herself as she can be.

I did enjoy that the coven of nasty witches in the end were beaten and set free of the bonds that kept them tied to each other.

Even Fin might have a little romance coming in her future! I hope that if there is a sequel eventually, that it focuses on Fin and her adventures.
