A review by tracilovelot
Witch Born by LJ Swallow

Book 1 definitely sets up an RH series, perhaps a bit slow-burn for some. I love, love, love the enemies-to-lovers aspect while not having bully in the academy setting! So refreshing. Also this book is an interesting mix of academy but also prison, because it's a reform school. So the kids are trapped on this Alcatraz island style "school" where they take lessons... but what are they learning? It turns out that some of their so-called teachers and counselors may not be as benevolent as they seem... I love the hybrids and the fact that their magic is uncontrollable. Good start to an RH series!
