City of Ruin

Potentially Spoilery Review (if you haven't read The Witch Collector yet):

Holy Moly, Charissa Weaks! What have you done to my heart? What have you done to my brain? I am BEGGING you all, if you haven't read The Witch Collector yet, please please please read it! This series has everything I love about adult high fantasy. Complex world building with twists, turns, and connections you don't see coming, action scenes that had me holding my breath, spicy romance, and it's multi-POV. If y'all have been here a bit, you know I love a multi-POV story. I love how much more rounded out the story feels by seeing it on all sides. When I wrote my review for The Witch Collector, my only critique was that I wanted more from Alexus, and boy do you get more of him in City of Ruin— so much more! The story continues where it left off in TWC. The pacing for me was pretty fast , but I am also super invested in these characters' stories. We meet more amazing side characters which include many strong females and diverse characters, which I loved. Charissa upped the spice in this book, and I was here for every bit of it! There's a one horse moment (underrated trope in my opinion and on of my favorites) and a ‘good girl' moment
