A betrayal. A deadly secret. An unlikely ally.
Valerie Darkmore’s entire life has been building up to this moment - her initiation into the Marionettes, the prestigious league of witches sworn to serve the vampires. As one of the last remaining blood witches, her spot is almost guaranteed. At least, so she’d thought.
The academy is full of sabotage and secrets as the tasks begin, and Valerie quickly realizes she has more than her spot on the line. Her survival seems just as uncertain. The closer she gets to the final trial, the more she learns everything - and everyone - around her isn’t quite what it seems.

At first I wasn't sure I'd like this since the world building is pretty much non-existent in this first book. The lack of world building is not something that gets better as the book goes on, which I found pretty annoying. I don't like not knowing what the stakes are or what characters mean to each other or why the world runs the way it does, etc etc. For me, I think this issue could have been resolved if there was more downtime for Valerie. Valerie is almost always going somewhere or doing something; there's never really any downtime in the plot for us to get to know her as a character. A constantly moving plot works for a lot of people but I personally prefer my paranormal/fantasy books to slow down occasionally so I can get to know the characters or world better.
That being said, the plot in this is so darn fun, especially near the end. I could not put this book down because I needed to know what the heck was going on. Chapter 22 in particular had me with my jaw open the whole time. I'll never look at snakes the same again, I'll tell you that much. I'm dying to get my hands on the sequel now. I want more romance and I desperately need to know what the heck was going on with that ending, lol! What an exciting first book in a promising new series!
wtf was that ending

The author skillfully builds a world filled with secrets and sabotage, where Valerie's journey is fraught with danger and uncertainty. Each chapter unravels new layers of mystery, culminating in a series of heart-pounding twists and turns that kept me glued to the pages. The final chapters, in particular, were an adrenaline-fueled rollercoaster ride that left me breathless.
Wismer's writing is evocative and immersive, drawing readers into the dark heart of the Marionettes' world. The characters are richly drawn, and their motivations and desires are complex and believable. Valerie, with her determination and resilience, is a protagonist you can't help but root for.
"The Marionettes" is a must-read for fans of dark fantasy and paranormal romance. It's a captivating story that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last page. I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking a thrilling and unforgettable reading experience.
