The Curse Keepers by D.G. Swank
4.0
I would say this was a pretty good read for the most part. I didn’t read this series the first time it was out and I’m probably not going to read the original ones because I don’t feel like I need to.
Pros: Ellie was a really enjoyable character. I don’t read urban fantasy often so the story was very unique. I also enjoyed the Native American culture incorporation, it made me want to do my own research to learn more. While I don’t enjoy cliff hangers it did make me want to read the next one.
Cons: Collin and I officially have beef. His character I thought reminded me of like that dude bro from when you’re younger that is rude for no reason and thinks they are so great. I honestly didn’t think his character got better as the story went on. The writing seemed a bit juvenile to me but that’s probably because this story I would say is pretty new adult. There is limited spice which isn’t a big deal that’s just why I would say it’s new adult. I think there needed to be a bit more world building and I did get annoyed that Ellie was still on the fence about the curse until the very end.
Overall I plan to continue the series!
