Even though I was impressed by Gratton's writing and uncensored approach to YA, Blood Magic did leave me with a rather bad taste in my mouth. Why? Well, there was a scene of rather horrible animal death that served absolutely no purpose whatsoever. Had this served some sort of narrative purpose, I m...

Read the full review here.The story started off very abruptly - in a cemetery with Silla trying blood magic for the first time. The background is then revealed slowly throughout the book, explaining how she ended up there. This is a great way to tell a story and it kept me engaged. Blood Magic is a ...

I don't even know where to start! AWESOME I is my first thought. Bloodiest book I've ever read is my second thought. But that definitely didn't get in my way of devouring this amazing debut! Tessa Gratton's Blood Magic is so precisely constructed that she's created a whole new dark and magically mys...

OVERALL IMPRESSION: Loved it! This book was wonderful. It was so riveting, I had to keep reading and see how the story would play out. The end of the book was so exciting.

I enjoyed this book for the most part. I liked the story. I enjoy when authors insert diary entries, or else even just flashbacks to the past. And I think when they leave it so you don't know for sure exactly who this person from the past might be in the present time story it adds a bit of myster...

Blood Magic is about witches: Finally something other than Vampires and Werewolves! I liked it, I thought it was fun and fresh, but it wasn't enough to really compel me to say "you know, this is a very good book". It was missing something though I cant quite put my finger on it. Regardless, I still ...

Hello, people. I like writing in bold letters because it is fun. You know what else is fun? Reading book reviews ... like this one!*Ah-hem* Anyway. Hello. It's almost 1 AM and I feel strangely perky. But knowing me, I will probably randomly conk out any minute. And for some reason, I always think it...
