Bespelled is a spellbinding sequel from Laura Thalassa

While it feels like fantasy romance has recently taken off, Laura Thalassa has been here all along and that’s why I always pick up her romances including Bespelled.

If you’ve read any of her books, you know that Laura Thalassa sprinkles something magical on her books and you devour them. No matter how long they are, you can read them in a sitting or two.

That’s why going into Bespelled, I knew this was going to be a wild ride and I mean that in the best way possible. Considering how Bewitched ended, there were so many stakes and things to get done.

Thankfully, Bloom Books has me on auto-approval on NetGalley so I was able to get a copy of this one and of course, read it in two sittings so thank you, Bloom!

Bespelled is a spellbindingly intense sequel from Laura Thalassa.

In talking about a sequel, I’ll try to be as spoiler-free as possible. With that being said, Bespelled does pick up after the events of Bewitched. If you read the end of that book, you’ll know why that’s so important. However, if you don’t, then there is no time like the present for a re-read of the first book.

With that being said, we’re once again following Selene and Memnon as they’re working on unraveling a mystery, trying to keep from falling in love and trying to figure out how to be civil with one another. While Laura Thalassa makes it look easy, this story is so complex and you really have to be paying attention.

Even so, her writing is so engaging and the tension between Selene and Memnon is just too good to ignore. The thing I adored most about Bespelled is that the plot was so incredibly fast and yet it didn’t take away from the romance. Every single time something happened, I would be shocked and then be ready to see these two kiss.

Maybe that’s the romance reader in me, but Laura Thalassa worked her magic with Bespelled and it makes me even more excited for the next book. I won’t give away any spoilers for the ending, but she left us on such a huge cliffhanger and I have no idea what’s going to happen next.

Thankfully, Laura Thalassa has a few other series you can fall into while we wait for the next book in the Bewitched series. All in all, Bespelled was a great sequel and set things up perfectly for the next book.

Bespelled by Laura Thalassa is out now where books are sold.
