A review by ctorretta
The Midnight Spell by Rhiannon Frater, Kody Boye
5.0
You know, I don't normally read the forewords or the other information at the beginning of books but for some reason this one caught my eye. This introduction actually talks about how and the way behind Rhiannon Frater and Kody Boye collaborating and it was really cool. I think I enjoyed the book even more because of this small bit of info that was given.
We get to see the viewpoints of this story from two different characters, Adam and Christy. If I had not read the introduction I would not have had a clue that this entire story was written by more than one person. The characters have a different voice but the writing is very similar, probably why this particular collaboration worked so well! Never did I feel like I was bogged down by one or the other character, and even more surprisingly I was intrigued by both equally!
The story itself is a fun, teenage, angsty plot but with huge twists. The whole I'm a witch and I'm gay thing may have been done before but not like this! The other characters that rounded this out were also incredible and I found myself wanting to get to read more about them as well.
And in the end I was still really curious as to what the hell was going to happen because there are so many twists, and secrets, and hidden agendas that even when I thought I had it all figured it, my idea would blow up and I would have to go back to square one, just like the characters did. It's a bit of a thriller, a bit of a ghost story, and a bit romance all rolled into one teenage angst, bubbly story!
I want more of these two, for sure! I'll be waiting for book two!!
