This book takes blinders off of the World of the Witchlands

I was incredibly lucky to be given a chance to get the preview of Sightwitch. I then devoured it after my full book arrived. I had a book hangover. Now however, I’ve been doing a reread of the series, chronologically mind you, and I didn’t think it could get better after I’d already read it once. It did. Sooz is a phenomenal writer–for any of those who are looking at writing her website is full of amazing tips that have helped me so much–and her world building shines in this novel. Those small things that you don’t believe notice, they tilt the world on its axis in Sightwitch. In comparison to the other novels, this is set in such a small location. However, it in turns opens up the whole world of the Witchlands. Honestly? With it’s weird side notes, quirky format, intense attention to detail, mystery, and snarky characters, I think Sightwitch is my favorite book in the series so far. Often times novellas while fun, don’t add much to the plot. This is completley the opposite. If we didn’t have Sightwitch, well I’m not sure I’d want to know what this series would be like without it. I certainly wouldn’t have my imagination going quite as full tilt trying to figure out where it’s going. Once again, Sooz attacks your heartstrings with what the meaning of family is, and what that means. I love the strength of friendships that is given in these novels. Sooz truly takes the words out of my mouth when she talks about what the ‘threadsisters’ in her books would do for one another. I could go on about this for days. (I have on my tumblr actually, but those are more to share fan theories than just my reviews). If somehow you haven’t decided that Susan Dennard’s Witchland series is something you should read, then I don’t think my previous reviews have done their job. They are full of romantic tension, the strength of friendships, amazing magics, crazy intense world building, exciting creatures, and everything you want in a fantasy novel. Did I mention there is going to be at least five books in this series? You have time to become addicted before Bloodwitch comes out next year!
