Spin the Dawn has been on my most anticipated book list of 2019 for a long time. Anything with royalty intrigues me. Which, in this case, Maia our main character enters a competition to become the next tailor to the emperor, but she has to do it disguised as a man and hope her secret doesn’t get out.
Spin the Dawn is marketed as Mulan meets Project Runway. I will say the beginning of the novel has a lot of Mulan feels to it, but it does not last throughout the story. It moves towards adventure and romance through the second half of the book.
A reason on why I docked a star is because there were times where I felt the characters main thoughts were jaded and juvenile when it came to the romance. Plus, I wish there was more to the trials Maia had to go through to get magic for the dresses she has to make.
Spin the Dawn definitely has a lot of twists and turns and is a book that is very hard to put down.

Witches, romance, and a mystery. Things I love in my books-okay, take out the Witches part and put it into a broader term of fantasy, then that will be my perfect combination.
We all have heard of the Salem witch trials, so let’s move to present day. There are indeed witches in Salem, but they act like normal people, but they keep their magic a secret.
Hannah is a witch and dealing with a breakup and her ex is also a witch, so things get a bit complicated.
She suspects that their is a bloodwitch in town, which is bad, really bad.
Terrible things happen and certain witches get targeted. There is either a bloodwitch or someone from their town is hunting them one by one, but who could it be?
When I first started reading These Witches Don’t Burn I felt a meh overall feeling about the book. I felt like I couldn’t connect with Hannah and felt like the book was dry. Yet, as I kept reading, I started to enjoy it more and more. I really loved the mystery of the book. I did guess who did it, but that still didn’t take away anything for me.
