Review
Firespell wasn't what I was expecting, part of me kept trying to find similarity's or the vibes that I got from Some Girls Bite, part of me was trying to get into the book and another part was waiting for something fresh which I got in the form of the plot of this story.
The plot sounds a little different from what we are used too and the twist Chloe Neill made makes it interesting to keep reading, the problem is you have to get passed a 100 pages or so of teenage drama that makes you loose track of what the story will turn out to be.
Maybe it was because the book and I weren't in the same wavelength or maybe because there were over a hundred pages of teen drama and maybe some mystery building to see some real movement on the story, but the slow introduction left me feeling that that was the thing that stands out the most about this book.
I feel that even if this book was just ok, this may be it for me and this series.
