5.0

I read this was a witch vs. witch hunter romantasy, so I went into it looking for Nina/Mattias and/or Nina/Hanne vibes from Grishaverse. Oooh boy this did NOT disappoint! I loved the spy vs. spy, cat and mouse game between our two main characters. The plot never sat still, and the pacing felt perfect. The blood magic system was uniquely interesting, and I can’t wait to see where this goes next in the sequel. I can’t believe this is only going to be a duology, because I would probably read like 5 more books in this world!
