Happy Witchy Wednesday everyone!! Yesterday was such an exciting day, with so many incredible books releasing. I myself had 3 release posts on Instagram, and The Unblessed Witch (Unmarked 2.5) by Miranda Lyn was one of those!
This book comes after the Unmarked Duology, so make sure to read those first! It is a witchy holiday retelling of a Dickens Christmas Carol. Miranda has made a way of taking a classic, and making her own original retelling.
SYNOPSIS: (from Amazon)
ONE WITCH’S BLESSING IS ANOTHER’S CURSE.
In this captivating holiday novella following the events of The Unbound Witch, Marley, a witch burdened by a dark history, possesses an extraordinary gift-the power to hunt shattered hearts with her enchanting magic. With every Winter Solstice, a relentless pursuit commences, as she begins a quest to help a wounded soul, invoking the Spirits of Past, Present, and Future. Though Marley abhors her magical abilities and the role she must play, the goddess does not care.
She unknowingly hunts down Atlas, now stripped of his shapeshifting powers and consumed by an unyielding resentment towards magic. Their fates intertwine, and Marley finds herself irresistibly drawn into the pits of Atlas’ haunting past, challenging his deeply ingrained fear of commitment. Bound by magic, they must stay together as Atlas embarks on a perilous royal mission.
As their connection deepens, Marley and Atlas unwittingly become entangled in the shadows of Marley’s own haunted history, setting off a race against time that pushes their limits to the edge. Will Atlas summon the strength to redefine his destiny? Can they rise above the weight of their individual burdens and forge a shared future?
Prepare to be spellbound by the poignant twists and turns that shape the interwoven fates of Marley and Atlas in this loose retelling of Charles Dickens’ timeless classic, “A Christmas Carol.”
My Review:
A witchy retelling of A Christmas Carol, brilliant!!!
If you’ve read Miranda Lyn’s The Unmarked Witch and The Unbound Witch duology, then you are absolutely ready for this amazing witchy holiday novella. If not, GO READ THEM!!!
The Unblessed Witch gives us more of our favorite character Atlas from The Unbound Witch, and a new character named Marley. Marley is a messenger of the Goddess, working with the Spirits of the past. This novella was everything I didn’t know I needed. It gives us such an amazing depth to our beloved Atty while also slowly healing all those cracks in our hearts that Miranda created with the first 2 Unmarked books. It’s deep, it’s emotional, and yes it has that delicious angst and banter that Miranda Lyn writes so well.
Whether you’re looking for an amazing witchy book for spooky season, or you’re like me and can’t just leave the spooky in one season, this series will scratch that itch regardless! Add these amazing books to your TBR and thank me later. 😉💜
If witchy books, and amazing fantasy with romance is your thing then I hope you give these books a read!! They will forever have a special place in my heart.
What’s one of your favorite witchy books?
Positive Vibes & Happy Reading!
