Edie In Between Review!

"As it is above, so below"

Edie in Between written by Laura Sibson is such a fantastic witchy read! I adore all of the witchy elements in this book including tarot, crystals, spells, rituals, magic, and finding magical items!

One thing I really loved was the lgbtqia+ representation in this book, I felt like it was very well done! So if you love sapphic reads, Edie in Between is definitely for you! The relationship built in this story I felt was really well developed!

I also love the way that grief is handled in this story, the fact that it is not something you just get over, but it stays with you always. Sometimes as Edie learned that grief can be a reminder of love, which is in itself is a powerful form of magic. I think the way that it was handled sensitively through the plot was really well done.

I also loved the language used in this story, especially when it came to magic. It also helped to make the story more immersive which I really liked. I think my only issue was the pacing at times was either a little slow or a little fast but it did not make the story any less enjoyable. I also wished we got to learn about other Witch families as they must be more, so I wished there was a bit more world-building.

However, one thing I really loved was how well crafted the ending was as it was, as I felt that the story's ending was very fitting and also really beautiful too.

Overall, I really enjoyed reading Edie in Between and I recommend this to anyone who wants a really good read. Thank you so much to TBR and Beyond tours for choosing me for this tour and for Netgalley for the chance to read it. My rating for this story is a well deserved 4 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐
