🌙 ARC review - gifted by author 🌙
Moonveil and Magic is a wonderful debut novel by A. M. Gold. I was entranced from the first chapter, the writing is witty, clever plotting and likeable main and side characters keep the story interesting and exciting.
Witchy vibes are great, banter and off the charts chemistry between Ivy, Kael and Lucien and their primal shifter energy are absolutely cold shower worthy 😏
I had such a good time reading this, thank you so much for the opportunity to be part of your arc team ✨🌙🫶

This was a fun witchy read. I love the idea of a FMC bookstore owner (because let’s be honest, that’s the dream!) that has to deal with a little forced proximity stuck with two warlocks who both want her. Talk about a “why choose” situation!
What a debut novel Amanda. You slayed it! Thank you for the ARC!

I’m really enjoyed Moonveil and Magic, it was fun and so easy to read. I love the witchy atmosphere, the bookshop setting and the whole dynamic between Ivy, Kael and Lucien, but I think my favourite part is actually the found family. I love the little group that’s formed around Ivy and the relationships between them — it gives the story so much warmth amongst everything else that’s going on. Everyone is different and contributes
There’s also a lot of mystery woven throughout the story, and I genuinely love that because I’m constantly trying to figure out what’s happening, who everyone really is and how everything connects. At the same time, I think keeping so much hidden has made the world-building a little harder to grasp in places. There have been moments where I’ve had to stop and work out exactly what’s happening or how something fits into the wider world especially in relation to Ivy, her ancestries and the shard. I love mystery but this felt like a little to much I was constantly guessing rather than building internally.
But it hasn’t stopped me enjoying it at all. I’m invested in the characters, I want answers, I love the found-family dynamic, and I’m very much along for the ride.

Such an easy and captivating read.
True power is having a group of people who back you up in the hardest/stressful moments of life, this story captures exactly that type of friendship and love.
Cats are also just put on the earth to knock things off counters/benches.
