Blumwald is a town overshadowed by an ancient curse: in a sinister castle in the depths of the wild wood lives a monstrous Witch. Once a generation, she comes to claim a companion to return with her - never to be seen again. Now that time is drawing near once more...
Mina, daughter of the duke, is grieving and lonely. She has lost all hope of any future for herself in Blumwald. So when the Witch demands her next companion, Mina offers herself up - though she has no idea what fate awaits her. Stranded with her darkly alluring captor, the mystery of what happened to the previous companions draws Mina into the heart of a terrifying secret that could save her life, or end it.

Hmmm a curious tale with strong fairytale vibes. I enjoyed it but wish I had felt more strongly the connection. I feel like we were told a lot of the feelings rather than them genuinely being shown.

I really struggled to get into this book. The main character was frankly quite annoying and I didn't believe any of the relationships. It was all very hollow and a bit 2 dimensional. It just ended up being a bit boring which I'm gutted about as I was drawn in by the cover and the book sounded good but I was just really disappointed.
I'm glad I got it out the library and didn't buy it.
