“You have more happy memories than scary ones, don’t you? Why give the scary ones so much space in your head?”

A safe haven between four realms and the girl sworn to protect it—at any cost. Hidden deep in the mountains of Colorado lies the Inn at Havenfall, a sanctuary that connects ancient worlds—each with its own magic. For generations, the inn has protected all who seek refuge within its walls, and any who disrupt the peace can never return. For Maddie Morrow, summers at the inn are more than a chance to experience this magic firsthand. Havenfall is an escape from reality, where her mother sits on death row accused of murdering Maddie’s brother. It’s where Maddie fell in love with handsome Fiorden soldier Brekken. And it’s where one day she hopes to inherit the role of Innkeeper from her beloved uncle. But this summer, the impossible happens—a dead body is found, shattering everything the inn stands for. With Brekken missing, her uncle gravely injured, and a dangerous creature on the loose, Maddie suddenly finds herself responsible for the safety of everyone in Havenfall. She’ll do anything to uncover the truth, even if it means working together with an alluring new staffer, Taya, who seems to know more than she’s letting on. As dark secrets are revealed about the inn itself, one thing becomes clear to Maddie—no one can be trusted, and no one is safe…

3/5

Havenfall leek me een interessant boek, een wereld die op deze manier in elkaar gezet is; daar moet meer te vinden zijn! Helaas viel het boek mij wat tegen. Het was wat rommelig, wat chaotisch. De karakters niet tot in de diepte uitgewerkt en het verhaal leek er meer bij te halen dan nodig was. Waarom dan 3 sterren? De potentie. De wereld is prachtig in elkaar gezet en ik hoop, dat in deel 2 er nog veel meer te ontdekken is en veel meer te leren.
