“What’s the point of a safe landing when you never leave the ground?” 
 
Venco is perfect for those who need a reminder that we are capable of much more than we think. 
 
However, the book overall let me down a bit as it didn’t feel nearly as witchy as I had hoped it would be. I loved the concept of the coven coming together with each new woman that was added, but still, there seemed to be very little magic and a lot of drama. The overall pacing of the book seemed to be off, making it hard to immerse in the book entirely. 
 
While I completely understand that this was intentional, I found the chapters from Jay Christos's perspective to be icky and unnerving—by the end of the book, I ended up skipping them because they were just disturbing. 
 
Read if you enjoy: 
💪🏼Strong female protagonists 
🔍Mystery 
👏🏼Found family 
🖤Atmospheric destinations 
 
While I would love to recommend Venco, it just didn’t live up to the hype I had for it. Ultimately, I would recommend reading The Change instead of this one.
