The Goddess and the Hawk by Chiara Gala

5.0

This book delighted me! I found out about this through the author's tik tok, which showed up on my page with only a handful of likes. It sounded like it was up my alley so I grabbed it on kindle unlimited.

For starters, I love magic and murder mysteries, especially combined. Obviously fated mates are a big plus, and don't even get me started on the positive queer representation here! There was also an incredible amount of joy associated with womanhood throughout the book, which seems uncommon in fantasy, but really spoke to me and definitely heightened the story in a big way. This certainly did not read like a debut novel, and I'm eagerly anticipating what comes next in this series and from this author in general!
