Tangled Roots (Witches of Willow Creek: Tangled Magic Series Book 1) by Denise D. Young – Review by Lauren Schnoebelen

Tangled Roots by Denise D. Young
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Willow Creek Coven has been a sanctuary for witches for many years and it’s no different for Cassie. When her brother threatens to take her home where she can’t practice magic, she begs the Goddess to keep her hidden from him. When the Goddess brings her out of hiding, Cassie steps into a world she doesn’t recognize anymore and the coven consists of only one man who refuses to practice magic anymore. Things will have to change though because a shadow is settling over Willow Creek and more than just the witches’ lives are at stake.

This surprised me in the best of ways and I really enjoyed my time reading this. It’s super quick and pretty short but it feels like the author covered enough to really make the story feel well rounded. One of my favorite parts is the small details of connecting the four elements to different creatures who represent them and asking for their blessings before practicing magic. I’ll be interested to see what happens next, especially with the romance. It felt a little quick but with the details included in the book, it didn’t feel forced.
