Oh, wow, what a intense book! I loved it! I admire how well-written this story is. It made me go through all range of emotions during reading it! Suspense through the whole book. I was sad, excited, angry, happy.. I cried and laughed so many times. The chemistry between Quincy and Quinntessa was so palpable. Their pull towards each yother so visible. I wish there were more from their POV. Their anxiety, trauma, experiences were very well described. I felt sucked in this book so fast.
And that special song Quincy wrote… it is just beautiful! Made me cry so many times. Amazing thing was to listen to it on Spotify.
Again great playlist as chapter titles.
I can’t wait for the next book!
I devoured this book in a span of a day, I f***ing love this book, I was crying. I cant wait for more of these 2.
I was not sure what direction we would go or how this would wrap up. Personally I loved it. So much to relate to and also super twisted. I was in it from the beginning and was so sad the next book was not ready for me to get into. The love story really is one for the ages. I can’t wait to find out what’s next, FOR ALL OF THEM!
Seven months after reading Hearts and Stars, the first book of The Coven Chronicles, I finally met Quinn and Quincy again. In all honesty, I vaguely remember what happened in the first book, but as I read through Aces and Arrows, memory came back to me and let me tell you… it left me as excited and enthralled as before. I couldn’t put it down either.
You have to be tough to read this book, the whole series in fact. I lost count of how many times I had to fight off tears and I’m not ashamed to say that I lost the battle at a certain point because… How long can you hold on when you keep getting kicked in the guts so many times?
I absolutely enjoyed getting some insight into Quincy’s life, her mindset, her struggles with her family, her feelings for Quinn, and the constant conflict raging within herself. In my review of Heats and Stars, I said I was waiting to read Quincy’s side of the story before expressing what I thought of her. Well. She is messed up, but she has a heart and a willingness to be and do better that I can only appreciate.
I also previously said that I had strong words for Quinn’s father (this stands even more so after reading the second book), but Quincy’s father can join the club too. Both are bad. Both deserve to get their karma.
The hold The Coven Chronicles series has on me is unbelievable. Its grip is so strong I need the rest of it like right now, but I will be patient as good things come to those who wait.

**Book Summary**
Careful, babygirl. This devil has a pretty face.
When Quincy Battles is assigned to end a generational feud in exchange for her daughter’s safety, she’s prepared to mourn the loss of a classmate. However, her focus slips when a blue Mustang pulls through Coven and brings a glittery, pink-loving, football player into her world of misery.
Quinntessa Dawson is a distraction. A freckled-face, beautiful distraction. She’s ignorantly unaware of the danger that haunts these woods; unaware of how close to the devil she truly stood.
It might be harder to protect her family than Quincy originally thought. With a light finally entering her dark, underground hellscape, there’s only a matter of time before Quinntessa learns the truth behind Quincy and her sins. If Quincy didn’t strike first, she’d suffocate at the hands of these infectious sensations, the daughter of her father’s nemesis, and Coven’s newest sparkly football player, has tormented her with.
“Aces and Arrows” by Phoenix Kathryn was a captivating read. A perfect follow up to book one, “Hearts and Stars.” I think their world building and character development was…
