The Mesmerist by Claire Luana – Review by Audrie Harrington

The Mesmerist by Claire Luana
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A fantasy mystery with a new take on magical abilities that I had not read before. The story takes place in a royal court where Adrijana has come to visit her best friend, Simeon, and also try to work for or befriend the princess so she can stay. The story unfolds as the Mesmers discover her true identity which her father had been hiding using a plant they grow and deliver to the royal court. Mesmers had been mostly killed off in the kingdom and are often thought of as having terrible magic and powers. Members of the royal family are dying and Adrijana is trying to help solve the mystery and the murders, while also learning the new powers that come with being a Mesmer. There are wonderful characters that are easy to follow as the story is told and there are mysteries and plot twists that keep you guessing as you flip the pages.
