Serpent & Dove by Shelby Mahurin
4.0
This book was deliciously binge worthy.
Following the story of Lou, a witch, and Reid, a witch hunter -as they are forced into marriage and deal with the consequences (both positive and negative) that their union brings. It was addicting to watch as they learn who they are to each other, who they are to themselves, and in just how many ways their lives are tied.
I am a sucker for a good YA Fantasy, and this just checked every box. The world building was fantastic, I loved that this was a story about witches (I have been missing witches recently), and how, that even at the end, some secrets were still secrets.
The relationships between the characters were crafted so well. Throughout the twists and turns in this story - I found myself on the edge of my seat as each connection was revealed. It is never fun when you figure everything out at the beginning - that was not the case here. I am excited to see how all of these threads continue to weave together.
I cannot wait to see where this series goes. I am so deeply invested in Lou and Reid, it is a little silly. I am invested in their journey, their found family, and their justice. It is wonderful to know that this is just the beginning!
