What a fantastic end to a fantastic trilogy! I’ve thoroughly enjoyed reading these books and the final was amazing. Action packed, on the edge of the seat stuff and I really felt for Merry and Leo. They’ve had to go through a lot throughout the 6 months these three books are sit in!

I couldn’t help but grow attached to the characters and this one was a brilliant addition with the additive of parallel worlds, plenty of magic and surprises around the corner. I could literally read these books set in this universe forever and I hope there will be more in the future. Would love to rejoin these characters to see how they were getting on after the aftermath of this book.

They were absolutely brilliant though and I devoured the whole set in no time at all. They make for very easy and enjoyable reading and is a fantastic book to stick your teeth into. Kind of sad to have finished them but so happy I got round to reading them in the end. So worth picking these books up! Loved it.

I cannot say I enjoyed this book as much as I liked the first one, I enjoyed it, but by the time I got round to reading this book I felt that the story had just been dragged out. I did originally love the underlying themes, however, I felt that changing the original 'rumplestiltskin' style character for the last two books just made the first book feel unnecessary, other than for laying out who the characters are. I feel like this book would have been better as a standalone or as a longer individual book.

I just closed this book and I'm not entirely sure where to start my review and what to write down here. For some reason I'm really sad that this was the last book in the series, that it's really over now and that there isn't another installment to this story. On the other hand I still think that the first book was the best one, with the best storyline, although...

The last book was interesting and kinda amazing too. Especially the start of the book was really impressive and I loved the sort of alternate dimension that was created and that we've gotten to know some of the amazing characters from the very first book a little better and a little differently. I also think that the finale was pretty good and especially the final ending, although I personally would have dared to go one step further. But that's just dramatic old me.

If you're looking for a really deep, complicated and original story, this is not your story. I think overal the magic is not always consistent and the mythology has some weak points. There are moments when it's hard to follow the fights and what's happening, because that's the downside of books using magic. I also think that the pacing and arc is not always perfect.

But, I still enjoyed this series a lot. I've been on the edge of my seat from start to finish, I loved the characters we've got to meet, especially Jack, and in a way I will also miss them a lot.

So, my brain and heart do not agree on this series. But when in doubt, always go with your heart, right?

perfect finale. 5🌟

Review Taken from The Pewter Wolf

***Copy given by UK publisher, HarperCollins, in exchange for an honest review/reaction***

I’ve been holding off reading this for a while. After finding myself blitzing the second book in the series, [b:The Witch's Tears|30796767|The Witch's Tears (The Witch's Kiss, #2)|Katharine Corr|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1476395525l/30796767._SY75_.jpg|51384717], I’ve been a little hesitant to go back and finish this series off. I knew I would, but I never felt ready, if that makes sense. Plus, if you guys have follow the blog or any of my social medias, you know I have a tendency to start a series but NEVER EVER FINISH THEM!

So, imagine my surprise when I was chatting to the authors on social media one day at work and went “Oh hell, I’m ready!”. And because of themed reading month am planning round the corner, I had to slip it in somewhere. And when I did, I found time and hammered it out over a week (or, if we are being super picky, four sittings).

After the devastating events of Witch's Tears, Merry will stop at nothing to save her brother Leo. Even if that means ignoring her coven’s orders to do so. But doing so has unforeseen consequences for the teenage witch. As she and Leo are forced to confront evil from past and present and her powers growing, how far are they will to go to save the people close to them?

So… where do we begin?

I really like the series. Yes, it’s a bit clean teen for my tastes but I really had fun with this series and these characters and Witch’s Blood is no exception.

Like I said earlier on, I read this in four sittings, but two of them were several hours long (which is super rare for me to do. Am always doing something or, in the recent summer months, too hot to read/do anything!) and I wouldn’t do that if I did find the book a fun read. And that’s what this series is - Fun.

Ok, it’s not perfect - like I said when I read [b:The Witch's Kiss|29984535|The Witch's Kiss (The Witch's Kiss, #1)|Katharine Corr|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1461438941l/29984535._SY75_.jpg|50384983] and Witch’s Tears, this does feel a tad skeletal and there are one or two twists that readers will see coming a hundred miles aways. Plus, I sense one or two of you won’t be a fan of the ending, but after reading so many books over the past few months where their ending are complex or slightly messy, it was nice to read something that was neatly wrapped up with a bow. I know some of you guys won’t like that, but as I’ve always said this series is a series I would happily read on the beach, I was kinda relived that this kind of ending was here. I didn’t want a messy ending this time round - I wanted an ending with kissing and hopeful futures ahead.

I know I’m a bit nitpicky, but I had fun with this series and each book was an addictive read. I kinda wish I binge them backtoback over the summer or Easter break as this would have made such a fun holiday read! I am very intrigued to see what Elizabeth and Katharine’s next series, [b:A Throne of Swans|47503445|A Throne of Swans|Katharine Corr|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/book/50x75-a91bf249278a81aabab721ef782c4a74.png|72600552], is going to be like…

The last 50 pages made me cry like a baby.
I love Merry so much aasfsklahsfagajpfhajfbalehflasv
