3.5 stars rounded up.

Thank you to the author and NetGalley for giving me an ARC.

First off, the premise of this book was absolutely fantastic! The prose was great, the writing was really well done, and it was intriguing from the very first chapter. I really liked the format of the chapters/parts with the tarot references, this was such a cool idea, and it really added a lot to the book. I also really liked the mixture of present and past chapters, it made the narrative unfold in a really organic way, and helped introduce context and backstory.

Unfortunately, I really struggled to connect to the characters. For some reason, I just couldn't get myself invested in them and their stories. It's a shame because the book is very solid and I'm sure others would absolutely love the characters, but I just couldn't connect to them.

I also really loved the inclusion of queer characters!

I'll definitely be looking out for other titles from the author in the future because I really like their style of writing, and the format of the book was fantastic!

After reading and loving In the Shadow Garden, it seems like I've been waiting forever for another Liz Parker book. So, you can imagine my delight when this new novel became available for request. And it did not disappoint! Witches of Honeysuckle House is an emotionally captivating tale with the perfect blend of magic, mystery, and romance. A story that follows two sisters on their journey through generations of trauma while they attempt to break the curse that comes back to threaten their family every thirteen years. Witchy magic, tarot, an enchanted house, a magical bookshop...even a conjured kitten. This book had it all! The storyline was quite interesting and suspenseful. Not knowing what was going to happen as well as what happened in the past was a mystery that I dreaded, and it slowly unraveled with the passing of each page. I grew to love these characters and did not want to see any of them come to harm. Especially the house! I absolutely adored the house and loved that it was a character with its own POV. I also liked that the author used journal entries to tell the story of the past. One of which even had my name. So cool! I really enjoyed this book. It was a beautiful tale filled with hope, love, and the power of magic. There was even a little twist thrown in that I didn't expect. If you're a fan of magical mysteries, this book is for you! I highly recommend!
