Faron Vincent can channel the power of the gods. Five years ago, she used her divine magic to liberate her island from its enemies, the dragon-riding Langley Empire. But now, at seventeen, Faron is all powered up with no wars to fight. She’s a legend to her people and a nuisance to her neighbors. When she’s forced to attend an international peace summit, Faron expects that she will perform tricks like a trained pet and then go home. She doesn’t expect her older sister, Elara, forming an unprecedented bond with an enemy dragon.

Nestled between Little St. Simons Island and Jekyll Island, Salix Pointe is not a place that many people know of. Part of the Golden Isles of Georgia, all the weeping willows that grow there have led the surrounding town’s folk to call it the Island of Death. Elisa and Tasmin may not want to put too much stock into the folklore of Salix Pointe, but there is a reason that the universe has brought the two women together.

One of Life, for healing and comfort, and one of Death, the only person in the world with the ability to kill.

Immature characters

Publisher's summary
In a country divided between humans and witchers, Venus Stoneheart hustles as a brewer making illegal love potions to support her family.
Love potions are a dangerous business. Brewing has painful, debilitating side effects, and getting caught means death or a prison sentence. But what Venus is most afraid of is the dark, sentient magic within her.
When an enemy’s iron bullet kills her mother, Venus’s life implodes. Keeping her reckless little sister, Janus, safe is now her responsibility. When the powerful Grand Witcher, the ruthless head of her coven, offers Venus the chance to punish her mother’s killer, she has to pay a steep price for revenge.
The cost? Brew poisonous potions to enslave DC’s most influential politicians in order to pass legislation that will protect witchers for years to come.
As Venus crawls deeper into the corrupt underbelly of her city, the line between magic and power blurs, and it’s hard to tell who to trust … herself included.
The Poisons We Drink is a potent debut about a world where love potions are weaponized against hate and prejudice, sisterhood is unbreakable, and self-love is life and death.

Joan’s skill with her blades comes from a magical ability to control metal—an ability gifted by her Head Orisha, Ogun. Because her whole family is Orisha-blessed, the Sands family have always kept tabs on the Fae presence in London. Usually that doesn’t involve much except noting the faint glow around a Fae’s body as they try to blend in with London society, but lately, there has been an uptick in brutal Fae attacks.

In the depths of cosmic eternity, a divine pact was forged between God and the Devil, safeguarding the universe from their omnipotent clash. They agreed never to set foot within the cosmos, fearing the cataclysmic consequences of their powers colliding. However, the Devil, ever the defier of pacts, dared to challenge this agreement. Sending forth a formidable demon to disrupt the delicate equilibrium of good and evil, he aimed to steal souls for Hell's nefarious dominion.

Recently, he’s fallen behind on deliveries (and deeper into a fog of alcohol).

Prose, Narration, Twists!!
The story and world building was stellar, the progression kept me engaged, plenty of twisty plotlines but not too overwhelming. Narration was amazing!! All of the characters had unique voices and the dialogue was full of emotion.

Worth IT
I was hooked from the first chapter. The characters are uniquely written. They captivate you and draw you into a world of magic, love, and... I will let you fill in the blanks. It is a must-read!!

enjoyable
I was anticipating this and it didnt disappoint storywise, the worldbuilding was great, and the characters enjoyable...
What I didn't like was some of the characters' motivations, decisions or actions that sounded wild considering their situation, and those are skipped over or never addressed... And IT's storyline wasn't satisfying at all because if you weigh the pros and the cons of using/not using IT in some of the situations V finds herself in, it just makes you wonder why she never befriended it in the first place... for a brewer she should know about making lemonade out of lemons but... regardless of that, storywise, V kinda achieves the same result as if they worked their way to an agreement, so it feels a bit disconnected.
All in all, the story was enjoyable...
