Windwitch by Susan Dennard

5.0

So, the beginning for this was a bit slow for me and I am not sure if that is because I was hella busy or because it was just slow. It did pick up and I read the last half in a single night. One of the reasons I loved the first book so much was the friendship between Safi and Iseult. Sadly, there was less of that but with good reason (and not nonexistent just less). I only hope that changes in future books. Safi x Iseult otpp (one true platonic pairing (idk if that's actually a thing but it needs to be)). The book is still great though. We get to see more of the Witchlands and get insight into how other countries work. We get to see interaction between Iseult and the Bloodwitch Aeduan which makes me excited for the 3rd book Bloodwitch. I hope we get some chapters of the Empress in the next book because I want to see more character growth from her. She seems like a badass but we don't really get to see much from her since we only see her through Safi's sections.
