Barely Bewitched by Kimberly Frost

I'm starting to like this series, but the author is trying to cram in too much stuff and is neglecting the main characters (and everyone else) development. The characters start to work things out and grow and then oops another disaster to avert/fix. The characters even comment/think this! There were at least 2 spots in the book where the main character starts to reflect on her life/relationships/new powers and she says that she doesn't have time to think about it right now! Doesn't the author realize that this is the stuff we want to see?? I mean the witchy stuff is fun and all but unless there is more character development it gets boring.

Rating: I'm gonna give it 4 stars, I still enjoyed it even with it's flaws

Recommendations: The first book in this series is Would Be Witch*.

320 pages in about 2 hours

* denotes an already reviewed book.

Would Be Witch by Kimberly Frost

I really enjoyed this book, and in fact have the next one in the series ready and waiting for me! The main character, Tammy Jo was charming and likable and not without flaws. I didn't especially care for the romantic foils in this book, but you weren't supposed to exactly. I'm hoping that Tammy Jo gets her act together soon though, the seat of your pants not ever *really* knowing what you're doing thing will get old soon. I want to see her grow!

Rating: 4 stars

Recommendations: The next book in the series is Barely Bewitched, I have a copy on my NOOK just waiting for me! And luckily the library has the third book, Halfway Hexed.

304 pages, 2 hours, an easy read
