A review by brynnandunaway
Serpent & Dove by Shelby Mahurin
3.0
Enjoyed this! Loved the setting of fantastical France. Loved the witches and their magic system with “trade offs” to limit their power. The witches and the humans are both very very morally gray. You understand both their sides.
Two things that hampered my good time:
1. The relationship could have been more developed for a 500+ page book considering it is the main focus of the story. I didn’t completely FEEL their feelings for each other and felt like their ~love~ happened a little abruptly.
2. Some of the action scenes confused me?? Maybe I’m dumb but I would lose sight of where they were and the location of people during fights.
Overall a fun time! Leaves off on an obvious cliffhanger and I’m looking forward to getting back into the world in book 2!
