    Spannende dunkle, Gothic Fantasy, aber man sollte die Contentwarnung beachten

    Man steigt direkt mit Winni in die Geschichte um das verfluchte Haus Witchwood Manor ein, lernt aber nach und nach auch Winnis Hintergrundgeschichte kennen. Ich mochte besonders Winnis Charakter, da sie erfrischend im Kontrast zu manch anderen klischeehaften FMCs steht! Der einzige Grund, warum es kein 5 Sterne- Buch für mich war, war der überraschende und für mich nicht ganz passende Romance-Subplot und das sich irgendwie hinziehende Ende. Aber dennoch eine klare Empfehlung für alle, die auf dunkle, historische Urban Fantasy mit schaurig-bösen Feen stehen!

    Arc provided in exchange for an honest review. This was my first book by Olivia Atwater, so I went in completely blind. We follow a young woman named Winnie which is a governess as Witchwood Manor. But Winnie is way more than just a governess and the Witchwood Manor is way more than just a simple house. Together with Winnie we discover the secrets of Witchwood Manor and the family that lives there. It is a regency fantasy with a little murder mystery on the side. The book started pretty slow, but got faster around 50%. While at the beginning I was not very invested in the story, the second half redeemed it for me. Maybe I am also missing some bigger context as I haven’t read the other books. It was a nice read, but a little hard to get through the beginning.
