A review by monicapal15
The Winter of the Witch by Katherine Arden

3.0

So disappointed that I didn’t love this as much as other people did. After thinking about it a while and reading some of the other reviews I realized it is because there are kind of 2 different story arcs that felt so disjointed in my opinion. I was enjoying myself up until the first arc ended (about 2/3 of the way through) and then when the second arc started, I began to get so confused and completely lost interest to the point I was considering DNFing the book. I still ended up finishing the book but was pretty confused, although I think this is more a me issue since I just fully lost interest and was not invested in anyone or anything other than one character (iykyk). I am wanting to drop it down to a 2.5 since I was so close to DNFing multiple times in the last 1/3 but I did enjoy the first 2/3 of the book, so leaving my rating at 3.
