The Witches Blade (The Five Courts of Okrith #2) by A.K Mulford



 The Witches Blade (The Five Crowns of Okrith #2)

A.K Mulford


This is the sequel to The High Mountain Court, which was a necessity to read after the first one. The set up and love interests, the idea of Fated Mates, just all of it was fantastic. Once again, read this in one night. Only took me maybe 6 hours to finish, which is fantastic. Very excited for the third book to come out. 


This Book is About:


  • Rua, Remy’s younger sister, is the main focus of this book.

  • Like her sister, she is a red witch and a high fae. Except their upbringings were completely different.

  • While Remy had to hide herself away and have her guardians change..Rua was in the presence of the red witches and they made her life absolute hell.

  • This has to deal with Rua facing her trauma, her darkness in herself that's amplified by the blade she welds, and how she now fits into this new world.

  • She is the link between the fae and the witches, her goal is to unite them all, especially the blue witches. 

  • Through this she finds her own strength, friendships, and her fated.


What I Liked:


  • How strong she is and how she showed it is okay to be broken, hurt, and also a good person.

  • Fated Mates again.

  • Her journey of acceptance of those around her and that she is worthy of love in return.

  • Renwicks secret and the twist at the end.

What Wasn’t My Cup of Tea:


  • The forgotten ones were rough. Made the story work, but so absolutely harsh.

  • That being said the torture scenes were graphic, but thank gosh they were short. 

    • Also just the imagery of the stronghold the blue witches were held and tortured


  • The hostility towards Remy until the end was a little bit of bullshit. Understandable if she was awkward and doesn't know what to do, but it was just rude at times.


Overall Thoughts:


  • Once again I read this in one sitting. Swear I haven’t slept right since, but it was worth it. 

  • Was sooooo good and honestly would recommend it again. 

  • I absolutely love Renwick, his story line, how he acts, his love and devotion towards Rua. 

  • Also I love the Eagles, especially Bri, and her relationship with Rua and how well they blend with Remy.

  • Shows its okay to be damaged and just because you are you’re still worthy of love, forgiveness, redemption, healing, self love, and friendship.

  • Also love the Blue Witch Baba..she is so precious.

Miracle Mountain (Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper #20) by J.L Bryan

      During the gold rush, prospectors came to Miracle Mountain in northern Georgia, looking for their fortune in the local waterways. Legend tells of a mysterious event, of a girl falling to her death from the local waterfall and miraculously coming back to life the next day. Tourists now come to this legendary location looking for a miracle of their own. Nearby is a rustic historical inn that welcomes visitors looking for their own miracle and a glimpse of the local ghost Freija. Ellie and her team are called in to help the owners get rid of the malevolent spirits that are scaring away business.      I love this entire book; I swear every time it gets scarier as the series goes on! Ellie and Jordan come to the Highwater Inn to help rid of the malevolent ghosts but are told to steer clear of the friendly welcoming ones. The owner Willow, who claims to be a spiritualist, is trying to contact the dead and even goes as far as to welcome them into the inn. Wi...

A Court of Silver Flames by Sarah J. Maas

 Absolutely, hands down, my favorite book in the series. The entire evolution of the story is incredible. Thank gosh it was broken down into three parts because this bitch wouldn't be able to handle it otherwise.      LOVE the evolution of Nesta beginning to live and love herself, despite the darkness she's caused and witnessed. That she finds her reason for being and fights to retain it and fights to be a better version of herself constantly. Nesta finding her love in music and dancing, is so beautifully  written. The house being sentient being, even capable of complex emotion and understanding, is so beautiful. It gives Nesta the nurturing, respect, and love that her mother never gave her. Which while healing is something she desperately  needs especially because her mother was so absolutely awful to her. The addition of Emerie and Gwyn are the perfect characters to add and further broaden the family in the ACOTAR universe.       ...

  "You want to see if you can train the evil singing nursey ghost to...do what? Babysit evil children?"     Ellie Jordan's life just got a whole lot more complicated; Calvin sells the company, and the new owners are in town calling all the shots...not to mention Michael is in a coma due to the injuries sustained on one of her last investigations. The new client they are to meet is a pregnant woman who has a ghost that appears in the nursey singing an eerie lullaby. As always, the team discovers there are more ghosts in the house and that one hunts children, and they need to stop them before they try to kill again. All while figuring out where the now dormant Anton Clay is hiding.      Once again Bryan just absolutely knocks it out of the park with this new addition. I just want to open this up with saying how much I absolutely hate the new owners PSI, and Kara the Russian woman overseeing everything. she is extremely in touch with the paranormal and has a f...
