The villain of the story was quite obvious from the beginning. A task that sounds a lot easier than it is. Wren and Tamsin need to save the world from a magical plague and in order to do that, they need to work together. The quest Tamsin and Wren embark upon was really fun and I loved following these girls around. Sweet & Bitter Magic feels a bit like a Beauty and the Beast retelling and if you know me, you know I absolutely love retellings. This book’s plot is quite fun and interesting. I feel like the hardback copy of this book is gorgeous, and I want it in my bookshelf. Let’s start with this cover, because it’s beautiful. Of course, love bargains are a tricky thing, and these two have a long, perilous journey ahead of them-that is, if they don’t kill each other first… To save him, Wren proposes a bargain: if Tamsin will help her catch the dark witch responsible for creating the plague, then Wren will give Tamsin her love for her father. When a magical plague ravages the queendom, Wren’s father falls victim. Sources are required to train with the Coven as soon as they discover their abilities, but Wren-the only caretaker to her ailing father-has spent her life hiding her secret. Wren is a source-a rare kind of person who is made of magic, despite being unable to use it herself. The only way she can get those feelings back-even for just a little while-is to steal love from others. But after committing the worst magical sin, she’s exiled by the ruling Coven and cursed with the inability to love. Tamsin is the most powerful witch of her generation.
