Most disappointing series I've read since Red Queen...
In a similar fashion, the first book starts out promising and then goes downhill as the series continues. The romances in these books leave much to be desired and the author would have been better off focusing on the mystery part of the plot, which was actually compelling but was severely neglected in this book. Almost an entire year goes by where everyone ignores looking for the rest of the Blood Moon Grimoire.
I was so looking forward to a series about witches written by a real witch. While the witchcraft bits of the book are still the best parts, the rest of the story was found lacking. There wasn't much plot to be seen until the last 20% of the book. The conclusion wasn't satisfying enough to make up for the problematic content I put in spoilers.
