The world is very vibrant, but at times confusing. I think there could have been a better introduction to The Spindles as I was confused for a solid 200 pages, but other than that the book concept is really cool!

Just knowing that to be able to read the third book I need to get patron is making finishing the book really hard

The book seems to span no more than a week at most. Things seem to move super fast yet really slow at the same time. So much happened, yet nothing really happened. I think if the book was a few chapters longer and added in a bit more development for characters relationships things wouldn’t have seemed so sudden with certain plot lines.

It was a really good book, but I feel like certain aspects were rushed. Whether that was due to publishing or other things.
Areas where certain plot points were repeated over and over again could have be left out and given room for a more thorough development for the ending.
There are many things that I felt were left unfinished.
I loved the witchy-ness and the way the story was built, but the ending was very anti-climactic and to have a similar repeat as what happened at the end of book one happen again in this book was a little strange. I understood why it needed to happen and everything though.
I feel like if the authors were given more areas to flesh out this world and the character it would have been even more amazing!

This books makes me want to get back into my witchy-ness!
And I love how unique each character is in relation to their magic! The end part kinda lowered the book from 5 stars to 4 though! Still an amazing book and can’t wait to start the next one!
