Blood Witch (Sweep #3) by Cait Tiernan Review

 Blood Witch review! 


Hey ForeverBookers,


How are you all doing today? I hope you’re well! 


I’ve just finished “Blood Witch” by Cait Tiernan, which I freaking loved! It was another reread from when I was a teenager but the Sweep series still holds magic over me, literally as it’s about witches! 


4.5 Stars!


In “Blood Witch” we’re again following our main character Morgan who at the end of The Coven #2, had just trespassed on her boyfriend, Cal’s mom’s secret library. What secrets does Selene hold? We’re also introduced to Cal’s half brother, Hunter in “Blood Witch” too. Can he be trusted? Or is he something evil, as Cal suggests. You need to read for yourself but I find these books addictive! Once I start, I don’t really want to stop! 


I read “Blood Witch” for a few readathons! They were: 


Reading Rivalry - Over At The Frankenstein Place - I consider this where the characters from Rocky Horror finally understood what was happening to them. Morgan starts to understand what being a witch truly means in “Blood Witch.”


Reading Rainbow Always Fully Booked Challenge - Orange! My omnibus edition of “Blood Witch” is orangey/brown, like burnt parchment. This completes the Reading Rainbow challenge for me. I used some manga too, which I don’t review, so that’s why you won’t find every colour on my blog - but just know that I have completed it. 


25 Books to read in 2025 -“Blood Witch” or the first Sweep omnibus is no. 16 on my list of 25! I might not quite finish this this year, we’ll see…


Spoiler s Below…


“ I mean, what does Sky want with my hair?”

       Cal’s golden eyes narrowed. “I don’t know— but I plan to find out.” He took a deep breath. “Don’t worry. No one is going to interfere with you, Morgan. Not while I’m around.”

       I was amazed at how comforting I found his words. I felt like a weight I’ve been lifted from my shoulders.”


This represents just how taken in by Wicca Morgan has become. She won’t believe that Cal could possibly be working against her. She’s so in love with him…when his half brother, Hunter enters the story later, does this change? Does Morgan begin doubting herself, and the things that Cal has told her? I’ll let you read for yourself but there are quite a few twists in this book that I lapped up reading again. 


Sky is Hunter’s accomplice, over from England. She’s working with Morgan’s former best friend, Bree and her cohort of witch wannabes. I can’t honestly remember much about Sky from the last time I read the books so I’m not sure of her significance to the story as a whole yet. Morgan thinks she’s not on the right side, though.


When Morgan goes to find answers about her birth mother with Robbie, her friend, what does she find and will whatever it is get her in trouble? I’ll let you read for yourself but it’s good! 


Overall, I love this series. It’s perfect for this time of year too. That’s why I’m giving Blood Witch a 5 star rating. We really learn more about Wicca and the effect it has on Morgan and her friends. 


I’ll post my next review straight away because I’ve been ill so my timing has messed up a little.

American Royals (#1 American Royals) by Katharine McGee review

Hey ForeverBookers,   I’ve just finished American Royals by Katherine McGee and I LOVED it! If you love scandal and complicated love stories in a contemporary setting, then you will love it as well! Think a royal version of Gossip Girl and you have this book in a nutshell. American Royals follows six characters, all of the new adult age range that come together to create a story of intrigue and romance. There isn’t high action or really a plot outside of the romance which was fine with me as I really enjoy stories just focused on the romance. I appreciated how “American Royals” only focused on the six different characters. There weren’t loads of personalities to get to know, and they all followed the same pattern as they’re all from or have grown up around a certain standing in society. This made the characters easy to follow and understand. It is a character led story, without as I said, much plot.  What there is of a plot of American Royals is taken up with the ascension of ...

Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty Review

Hi ForeverBookers,  How are you all today? I've just finished a great contemporary book! 4 Stars! NOTE: There are scenes of abuse and bullying in Big Little Lies so if you're sensitive about either of those topics this book maybe isn't for you.  Big Little Lies tells several stories at once. There's the story about the trivia night that runs throughout, the story of who one of the main character's father is, the story of an abuse victim, a story of a teenage girl putting her virginity up for sail in the internet and the main story for most of the book, little children lying about who bullied another child. All these stories were handled well.  We see the characters, both major and minor be interviewed throughout because of the murder that happened on trivia night. I'll be honest in saying that at the beginning of the book I thought that another character had been killed so it was a surprise to read what actually had happened.  Spoilers belo...

City Of Ashes (The Mortal Instruments Book 2) by Cassandra Clare Review

Hi ForeverBookers,  I've just finished reading City Of Ashes and it was really good! I've read this book before again and I didn't think it was very good last time but now I think differently. It had everything from fighting demons, to laugh out loud parts, to heartfelt moments. The story starts from where City Of Bones finished so there will be minor spoilers below.  The characters continue developing in this second book. For example, Clary's best friend, Simon really takes on a new role as a vampire, as well as the other characters maturing too. This was good to see as it gave the story different levels that we haven't seen before. I especially enjoyed reading about Simon's transformations. There's a new character called Maia, who is a werewolf. There's some antagonism between Simon and her as in this series vampires and werewolves don't get on.   We meet Alec and Isabelle's parents here. Maryse, their mother is a strong character, who is angry...
