Generally, I like the plot and the originality of the story, even though there are too many names. A pleasant read indeed.

It was difficult to understand what was happening at times and I didn't really care for some of the main characters- what kept me reading were the characters ISEULT and AEDUAN so i will probably continue to learn more about them.

What an adventure! I was not expecting to like this book as much as I did. I loved Safi, she's so vivacious and spontaneous that by the ending we can really see how she grows. I thought Iz would be my favorite character in this book, but it's really Safi. Iz keeps her cool and calm so often that I kept seeing her as that natural born fighter who was just naturally great at everything. But those chapters from her perspective really showed that she's not. She's just great at covering it. Also, Merik and Safi? Too cute. I think I died from how cute they were.

Truthwitch by Susan Dennard is the first book in a four part series. It follows two best friends. Thread sisters to be exact. Living in a world at the edge of war these girls go through many trials to stay together. Safiya is a rare truthwitch. Able to tell truth from lie. Able to see people's true intentions. Safi is valuable, and must be kept hidden from the world. Or she’ll be a tool for empires. Iseult is able to see people’s threads. She’s able to tell what someone is feeling however, she can’t see her own. Safi and Iseult can’t help but get in trouble. They always find a way out. However, now running into a bloodwitch, who can smell blood and control it, they finally have an opponent to match their skills. Though the story is centered around the girls friendship, there are many amazing relationships and characters surrounding them. The world building of this book was amazing. Dennard was able to slowly explain the world while keeping the story interesting. The characters are very easy to love, even the antagonists. The ending made me want to keep reading and the beginning drew me in immediately. It wasn’t what I completely expected. I honestly didn’t have that much high hopes but once I started reading I was immediately entranced into the story. I recommend this book to all lovers of fantasy. Especially if you enjoy Sarah J. Maas or Leigh Bardugo books.
