Damned Souls and a Sangria - Book Review

Damned Souls and a Sangria (The Guild Codex: Spellbound #8)
by Annette Marie

What is it about:
Once upon a time, I was your average spunky redhead with the lamest employment history ever, a shaky relationship with my only family member, and no idea what I was doing with my life.

Now, I'm a pseudo mythic with the best bartending job in the world, the most amazing (and hot) best friends I never knew I needed, and a guild of misfit magic-users who've become my extended family.

And I'm about to lose it all.

In my desperation to save Ezra, I stumbled into a web of ruthless deception—and seriously pissed off a sleeping hydra. Now its every murderous head is turned toward me and my guild, and I don't know how to stop it. I'm not sure I can.

I'm not sure anyone can.

But if we don't, we're all doomed—Ezra, Aaron, Kai, and my beloved guild.

What did I think of it:
This is the final book in this series and wraps things up for Tori and her friends, although some things going on in the overall world of this series are ongoing and will find their conclusion in the spinoff series Guild Codex: Demonized.

I loved how things turn out and I very much enjoyed most of this book. There's one gripe I have with this book: so much fighting! I thought the fight scenes were a bit excessive. They got in the way of the story in my opinion. I get that it's the climax of an eight book series, but it could have been handled differently than putting in a gazillion fights that don't really add that much to make them necessary.

That aside I loved this series and its satisfying conclusion. I will get my trotters on the last Guild Codex: Demonized book soon to see how things end for Robin as well.

Why should you read it:
It's a mostly satisfying ending to a cool series.
