Rise of the Witches by M.L Jewell
5.0
Rise of The Witches is a dark fantasy that lures you in with its lush, atmospheric settings and haunting monsters. It hooks you with its characters, and their journeys. It is romantic, spooky and tense — perfect for those looking for both scares and romance this spooky season.
Eliana’s journey throughout is a tough one, she’s learning more about herself than she ever thought possible, all while navigating her growing feelings for the mysterious Mallrie. She’s been through a lot in her life, and enjoys finding joy in the little things to get her through. She is brave, and powerful and a little lost.
We have so many incredible characters, my personal favourites are Tyler and Cyan. Eliana learning to love, both romantically and platonically, is lovely to see.
Let’s not forget about the Flesh-Hunters, Kailadons. They are creatures that will live in your nightmares with the way the author has created their bone chilling anatomy, right down to the Grudge-esque clicking sound they make when they’re stalking you.
I highly recommend this if you are someone who lives Romantasy, with a (heavy) dash of horror and spooks.
