This book begins with a phenomenal hook and alternating chapters with flashbacks to the past creates an ominous tension throughout the book. While her appearance may have convinced Evie of a chance for a happy ever after, this girl has secrets of her own that will demand sacrifice, and above all, love. Even though she denies it, Evie is certain it has to be Anna and finds herself drawn to this strange girl.

Except one day a different girl, one who looks an awful lot like Anna, appears. The ghost of Anna lies between them as they try to move on from her death. Anna’s death influences Evie and Nik forever. One day, Anna drowns even though Evie tries to save her with her forbidden magic. They’ve grown up together and lost together. SummaryĪnna, Evie, and Nik have been friends for years. Henning surprises you at every turn and if you thought the first three quarters of the book was full of surprises, just wait until you get to the end.

While I knew early on I would love Sea Witch, I don’t think it hit me until the end how much.
