The Witch and the Vampire by Francesca Flores
3.0

Thank you to NetGalley for a copy in exchange for an honest review!

When I say I JUMPED at the chance to read this the moment I realized it was a sapphic rapunzel retelling but with vampires and witches, I mean it. I think there's so much promise with this one that I hate to say it let me down. I think this would and could be top tier for a younger audience who are finding their reading niche. There isn't as much depth in this story and characters as I would have liked to see. The beginning was enjoyable I loved the bit of back story we were given and the similarities we're shown to the original rapunzel. But I do think there could be a lot of improvement with the story as we continue past chapter 10. With that being said though, I love this idea and hope to see it again.
