This book didnt seem to be of any interest until the 25% ? mark, but i chose this over all of my current reads and thoroughly enjoyed it. i did not expect the plot twist at all. sensitive topics like rape of a child, murder, and others are discussed pretty in depth, though, so if you are wary of topics like that, i would avoid this book. 

overall, a 4 star read for me. very engaging after the start! i felt like the writing got better as the story went on.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for providing an ARC copy in exchange for an honest review!

Idk... this just couldnt keep my attention and felt pretty immature for an adult romance. 

Overall, I enjoyed the rivalry between between the 2 companies, Make Up and Break up, but I couldnt stand Hudson Craft as a character and it made this book painful to read. 

Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for this ARC. All opinions are my own.

i loved TOG and COM but i couldnt even finish reading the last 6% of this one. 

i loved the plot, there are so many details and its fun to be involved in, but the writing in this seemed much more plain than the other books. i read the other books both in under 4 days, but this took me 9 and i just couldnt read more than a few chapters in a setting. 

New World Witchery: A Trove of North American Folk Magic by Cory Thomas Hutcheson

challenging informative reflective medium-paced

This book is a great collection of North American pagan traditions. Very informative, and it includes magical exercises you can enjoy yourself. This is a book that you really need to own in physical copy to be able to enjoy. To read it in even less than 20 days was tough for me, i wanted to take notes and really absorb the information being presented to me.
