Witchlings
by Claribel A. Ortega
adventurous
funny
mysterious
tense
medium-paced
I was given a digital copy of this title, free. All opinions are my own.
Oh my goodness, this was so good. I really liked the characters and how the changes in friendships are explained. Without giving to much away,, nothing is as it seems. Seven, Valley and Thorn come together and really are a force to be reckoned with. Along the way, they learn some harsh truths about their community . But - they don't just sit back and take it. They fight back. Ortega weaves in hard topics (child abuse, domestic violence, classism) into this middle grade fantasy as well as fighting monsters and protecting those that you love. While I am very excited to hear that there will be more in this series, I think that the looks thread at the end came out of nowhere. I am still curious to see how everything will work out. Ortega's sophomore novel has convinced me that she is definitely an author to keep an eye on.
