To Astera, With Love
by Amanda Ross
This book follows Mercury a witch who is on the run from vampires, as he and his friends endure a road trip across the country to the annual witches coven! Along the way they have to fight their way through several obstacles and challenges from people who are searching for them while trying to stay alive.
I thought the author did a good job mirroring real life issues into the book especially the racial tensions of current day and the political aspects that happened in the last 4 years. Unfortunately at times, I felt as if the events that transpired were so far fetched and unbelievable. I also wished more was explained about the magical powers the characters had and how they worked. Some of the language in the book was a little off putting and felt unnecessary which is just my personal opinion. The last fight scene to me was less than climatic and the ending left more to be desired so we know there will be a sequel!
Overall a decent read and I commend the author for exploring such an interesting take on such tough issues plaguing our society!
