Rating: 2 stars
Summary: It wasn't that bad.
Review: After reading the comments of the first reader/reviewer, I expected to hate this book. I actually found it pretty interesting. The novel is more about Wicca than anything else and I enjoyed learning about the religion in a fun, easy way. On the down side, the authors mar beautiful descriptions with an over use of similes. The reader is never allowed to connect a description, for example of a sunset, to his or her own memory and experience. This prevents readers from fully entering into the story. Instead of being evocative, the descriptions only serve to pound the reader further with the narrator's, or author's, point of view. The novel is also preachy and it lacks any sense of humor or irony. Despite these complaints I'd recommend this book to would-be novelists. Its strengths and weaknesses are readily apparent and the mistakes the authors make seem to be typical of beginning writers. This would be a good book to study in a workshop or creative writing class.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great fast read - sexy and fun!
Review: I don't know what book those other a-holes read, but this is good stuff. I'm going to put it on the shelf and read it again in a year or so.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Enjoyed this unique love story involving a witch!
Review: This book takes a unique and unusual look at the world of witchcraft. The love story is unpredicable and there are some hot erotic scenes enjoyable to read. What makes it fascinating are the vivid descriptions and the detailed look at wicca or white witchcraft.
