A Throwback Witch is Book 1 in the Wildes Witch Academy series by Holly Ice. This is a very interesting and intriguing storyline with excellent character development. Bianca (Bee) is celebrating Halloween with friends but wants more excitement out of the night so she visits the Edinburgh graveyard. She is attacked by a supernatural creature, injured, and uses witch powers (which she did not know she had) to defeat the creature. Within a few days after the attack, Bee finds herself kidnapped and taken to a magic academy in Latvia. This is a very superb read which I thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend. I received an ARC from the author and this is my voluntary and honest review.
Bianca is a young woman working trying to make ends meet and save for University one Halloween night when she was supposed to get a cab home from the club she decided to walk home through the park on her way to the cemetery, it was Halloween and she just needed more than she was getting out of the night. And she was shocked when something happened and she was about to be killed and her whole life changed right in front of her eyes and she didn’t even want to think about what happened and what she saw at the cemetery as she hurried to catch a cab home the guys she had seen earlier were screaming for her to stop. When her best friend came in after his date the next morning he realized that she was hurt he wasn’t aware of how badly. She got more out of the night than she expected and had to run for her life. Then she was found by the men she saw in the cemetery and they did the unexpected and she found herself in a fast-moving car and then a private plane to a foreign country Latvia. She is being enrolled in the Wildes Witch Academy. On her first day, she meets Shane who looks like the school bad boy but he only asks her about her roommate who happened to come on the plane willingly with her and why they happened to be sharing the same room in their dorm. They were introduced to the school and their familiars were assigned to each witch she was a bit shocked that her familiar had more than one appearance. Bianca and her roommate Kaylee were not getting along as well as she had hoped. But she and Shane seem to become closer after she finds out about him and his roommate Cameron is investigating something that has to do with the throwbacks, she is determined to find out what. Shane won’t tell but he agrees to let her talk to their superior. Very interesting storyline and the characters are intriguing too. I purchased this book. I am providing an honest review.
Bee is at a club celebrating Halloween with her roomie. She wants some real spooky feelings so she heads for a graveyard. She is attacked by a by a supernatural being and the next thing she knows the beast is thrown back in the air. Shocked, she runs for home hearing people in the graveyard calling her but she just has to leave. The next thing you know she is kidnapped and shoved on a private plane to Latvia and told she is going to a Magic school. Cue new roomie, getting a familiar, sexy male student, mystery to solve and danger. I enjoyed this book, but it left off as a cliffhanger. I recommend this book, but know in advance that you will need to read the next book (along with me) to find out what happens. I was given a free copy of this audiobook at my request and this is my honest review.
