Review: Clan of the Goddess


Clan of the Goddess
Clan of the Goddess by C.C. Brondwin

My rating: 1 of 5 stars



I think this book was written for a 6 year old...or a really clueless, Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan!

This one takes "fluffy Wicca" to the extreme!

It may work for some...but not for me...I've been a witch for way to long!

Good for a beginner, maybe!

Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows


Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Where to begin...

First of all...I spend the entire book crying! All of my favorite character (except 2) die!

It's a good book...wraps the story up nicely...but it could be longer...the final battle feels a bit rushed after 6 3/4 books of build-up! Maybe 30 more pages and this one would earn 5 stars!

I also wish the last chapter was longer...tell us more about the future, their children, relationships, etc! I know there are websites that have expanded on the final chapter and I can find almost anything out online...but I wish it was in the book!


Solid 4.5 stars...

Review: A Brush of Darkness


A Brush of Darkness
A Brush of Darkness by Allison Pang

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



My kingdom for a prequel!!!

While I am all for a fast-paced story, sometimes an author must slowdown and give us some back-story! I was more than halfway through this one before I finally started to figure out exactly what was going on! Also, it jumps around...a lot!

There are a few chuckles, a lot of groans, and 1 VERY horny unicorn!

It's ok...2.5 stars to be honest...I will however soldier on the the next one...
