BOOK REVIEW: "Witches of Ash and Ruin"

Pub date: March 3, 2020.

This was a great book featuring modern-day witches and how they band together to fight a common threat.

There were 6 POVs, and a lot of witches in the covens,  so it took me a bit to get everyone straight (I would still forget the names of some of the witches).  However, there was quite a bit of action which lulled briefly from time to time as the witches re-grouped and figured things out, but the story moved along at a nice pace.

I liked the Irish lore and the magic system, which was well-explained. The plot was interesting, and there was an element of suspense as we moved toward the inevitable confrontation.

I felt that the enemies-to-lovers part was a little forced and predictable. Also, there were times I got frustrated with the characters making dumb decisions, like if they had just used their cell phones to text or call each other with quick FYIs, or shared crucial info as they recieved it, it would have prevented a lot of the problems.

Overall, I enjoyed this story, and the ending sets up nicely for the next installment; I can't wait to see what happens next! ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Thanks to NetGalley and Disney Publishing for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.
