This Poison Heart

“You, baby.” She looked at me like she was seeing me for the first time. “You're some kind of actual Black girl magic.”

I wanted to love this book.

I just expected to have a bit more action and more fast paced. It more like a slow paced mystery with some magical elements.

But I love the characters, I love Briseis relationship with both of her moms, and her friendship with Karter (until that happened of course) and her romance with Marie, although it was too fast for me. Briseis just her meet face to face for the first time and about 30-100 pages later, she kissing the girl. Anyway, at least, some the mystery and secrets were really good. The ending was intriguing. The writing and world building was there and beautifully crafted.

But I just don't think I'm interested enough to continue with the series. Maybe one day, who knows
