The Unbound Witch by Miranda Lyn

4.75

 A pleasant surprise. Wasn't feeling these or any titles I had checked out with KU, chose these because it was a short series I could cross off. Quite a good story. The magic system was super cool, with the receivings or trances where witches got their new spells, always accompanied by a magical tattoo of sorts. 

Three best friends, lore, and love, and lore, and 3-way betrayal. The world was also very cool - a central island amidst several surrounding islands, connected only by bridges and the occasional magic door. Each island is a vastly different ecosystem. Small secrets or mysteries that become big and grand reveals, lynchpins of the story. Very much enjoyed the relationships, the trials, the environment, and overall conclusion.
