Sheena

‘Sweet & Bitter’ is about Tamsin, the most powerful witch of her generation and Wren, a magical source proposes a bargain: if Tamsin will help her catch the dark witch responsible for creating the plague, then Wren will give Tamsin her love for her father. 
 
All things considered—this was a fairly decent debut. The polar opposites queer duo, character development, the non overly romanticize plot, and how the author touched based on death and mental illness were my favorite portions of the read. Otherwise—bland/mediocre the writing style wasn’t up to par with what I envision for the novel, the romance between Tamsin and Wren wasn’t believable and there was a lack of chemistry, agonizing info dumps, and dragful scenes that had me skim here and there.
 
Ultimately, this novel has the capability to hold your attention till the last page and it wasn’t completely terrible so 8/10, I will give this author another go.
