Holy cow! I'm not sure I could have loved this book more! It was a great read that had two intertwining story lines, one in the present day, and one during the Salem Witch Trials. We all know how much reading about that subject excites me! :)
While I knew I'd like the historical story, I was a little worried that the other narrative would bore me. I was pleasantly surprised. It had a little bit of everything: romance, mystery, humor, fantasy, suspense, and danger.
The only complaints I have about the book are that I knew right away who the 'bad guy' was gonna be and her ability to create/use/do magic was a little unbelievable. I might have been more inclined to believe it if she didn't shoot blue sparks out of her fingers. Overall though, I loved this book so much that I'm adding it to my personal library.
I do so much reading that I figured it's finally time to create a blog about my love affair with books. This blog is mainly for myself to keep track of all I read.
