Shadow Coven was greatly anticipated after having loved The Witchery! Although this book takes place in the summer after The Witchery, it still feels autumnal to me—probably because of the witches! This book has the cast mostly separating off into their own subplots: Thalia, Logan, and Trent head back to Thalia’s hometown to solve the mystery of missing witches, Jailah teams up with her ex Veronica to fight the suppression of baby witch powers, and Iris, Matthew, and Bex discover what exactly their connection to each other is and how to use it.

This book is unique in that there isn’t really an overarching plot for the entire crew, but I still liked how it ends up tying up loose ends from subplots in book one. Overall, I think there were very good conclusions for everyone’s individual storylines, and while there was closure, there is also enough set up for possible future stories! Four stars!
