veecaswell 's review for:
The Bewitching of Aveline Jones
by Phil Hickes
After reading the first book in this series, I knew I would be reading the rest of it as soon as I could and when I saw the ARC appear on NetGalley I was delighted and for good reason, this author delivers every time and I fell into this book as much as I fell into the first.
Aveline is a wonderful character with the curiousity and intelligence of a kid and reminds me of when I was a child and used to look for ghosts in the woods with a friend (yeah, I hope I was not the only one who did that, right? Shout out to Joe for sticking with me) and I am glad, I never found the things Aveline does but I am so glad I get to read her adventures which leave me on the edge of my seat (even if I am an adult, idc).
The plot is exciting and gets you hooked, Hazel is an incredibly scary nemesis for Aveline and the dark and gothic tones are that flow through this book are perfectly done as the stakes get higher for the characters. The pace feels a little quicker in this one, but that is not a bad thing as this book pulls you in and makes it impossible for you to put down.
I just can't wait for the next installment of this series, it's probably my new favourite series and I need to get my hands on them as soon as I can! Pacey, dark and picturesque, this book is brilliant and no matter your age, I'd recommend it to you. Read this series!
(I received an ARC from Netgalley for honest review).
