First few chapters had me hooked! Will definitely look out for it when released. These chapters were more about place setting and introductions but they already had me wanting to read more.

This short excerpt of two chapters was very intriguing. I cannot wait to dive into the complete book. The writing style is very interesting and easy to read. The mysteries are just asking to be solved when the whole book is released!

I received a copy of the first 2 chapters of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I've never written a review for an excerpt before, so bear with me on this. This book takes place in our world, except there's a town somewhere in Colorado that's full of magic, and our main character is the only human who can come and go from this town as she chooses. Most of the 2 chapters were world building, but something felt a bit off with the descriptions. The way the mc sounds is so informal it comes off a bit clumsy. The story itself sounds interesting, and I will probably still pick it up when it comes out.

Very intrigued to keep reading! The first two chapters perfectly set up a part contemporary- part fantasy YA novel and I cannot wait to find out where Maddie's summer in Haven goes next.

OK so I just read the extract for this on NetGalley and I loved it. The only problem now is that I need more! I loved the premise, I loved the start of the story that I read in the generous extract, and I can't wait to see where it goes. Also there's a bit of a queer vibe too and I am here for it.

I was initially intrigued by the concept of ‘Havenfall’ and the author totally pulled it off. This was intriguing and honestly, I was hooked.

So this is going to be short like the extract.

I can see why this novel is gaining a huge amount of attention. It feels like it could go towards the fantastical, based upon the lake and the obvious magic thats to come. But I also feel it could go the other way too, being that it could be droll and like a lot of other things i have read recently. We shall see when it launches next year.

This extract hooked me! Thank you, NetGalley for providing this amazing book. I'll definitely read the whole book when it comes out.

Thank you Netgalley and Sara Holland for a preview of Havenfall.
I'm a fan of dark fantasies and darker tonalities in books, and Havenfall seems to fit my kind of read in the extract, it certainly made me want to read more about it, although two chapters doesn't give us a lot- we know beginnings can be quite deceptive- I just hope it isn't the case because it certainly left us with a taste for more.
Since it's short I'll rate the book on Goodreads and other places after it releases and I can read it all.

I enjoyed this Excerpt so much! I cannot wait until the book releases so I can get my hands on the whole thing. I really enjoyed it. It left me yearning for more!

I was only able to read the first two chapters of Havenfall, so my rating is a little low. It did not hook me like if did some people, but again, this was only the first two chapters so I'll give the book the benefit of the doubt and I'll still grab a copy of the book when it is released. I think I'm more interested in Taya than anyone else.

I was able to read the first two chapters of this book and I am absolutely hooked. This is on my most anticipated books of 2020. Keep an eye out for this one in March!

It's definitely interesting. I enjoy the darker tone of this book but based off just 2 chapters probably not the one for me

I find it difficult to review a book reading just a short extract. The story seems to flow well and the story starts out interesting with some questions in the air. I will not be giving a star rating after this brief encounter (the star rating is based on the extract).
