The Witchbeast

Parts of this one were slower than others but overall the story was well paced. I loved the characters and the story was fantastic. A first in the series this book does a great job at introducing us to the world and the characters. I do feel that this one didn't feel complete but I know that can happen sometimes with series. I hope that in the next one we get more world building and more background. This book made me want to know more and I can not wait for the next one.

Before I begin my review for The Witchbeast: #1 Awakening by Samantha Eklund, I would personally like to thank the author, the publishers and Netgalley for the opportunity to read this ARC and I have reviewed it honestly.

My overall rating for The Witchbeast is

3.5 Stars!

I have only recently started reading books wherein supernaturals are apart of the mainstream populace and I’m always pleasantly surprised at how unique each authors views on it differ. This book was no exception. The writing style in Witchbeast was informative and engaging however I felt the story slowed in the middle and dragged a little for me. The romance was also way too light for me, I’m a smut lover and not afraid to say it! This one is definitely refreshing for those who constantly skip steamy scenes. Overall the book was quirky and adventurous.

i never ended up downloading this, i've been reading other reviews on this and it sounds pretty good, so i might go get it~

I really enjoyed reading this book. The storyline was slightly basic and I guess someone of the twists and turns, but it was a nice, easy read for me. I enjoyed it immensely and would like to read book 2

First, can I just say that I absolutely love the cover of this book and given that it's the first book in the series, I found the characters interesting enough for that first introduction that I cannot wait to see what becomes of them in the coming books.
Thanks Netgalley for the eARC.
