One For My Enemy by Olivie Blake
4.5

Romeo and Juliet but make it rival crime witch families? Yeah, this book was right up my alley 😅. I really just love Olivie Blake’s writing style so much. She somehow manages to write beautiful, almost lyrical, passages without making them feel superfluous. I really enjoyed the way she merged this Romeo and Juliet retelling with some Slavic folklore, I thought it helped make the story feel fresh even though it was comprised of elements I was familiar with. All around another excellent read from her!
