Summary: Disappointing. Not for Witches.
Review: I'm always looking for a good story with a Witch twist, but this one was very disppointing. The only reason I finished the book was because I kept hoping it'd get better. In the end, I skimmed though most of it because it really wasn't holding my attention. I agree with another reviewer that this was another book that did not show Witchcraft in a good light even though it did try. Another bone to pick was that this definately wasn't a mystery! I don't recommend it and the book is in my recycling bag. The reason why I gave it 1 star is because it's like a bad show on tv, or a B rated movie, sometimes when you've nothing to do, you might as well watch/read it.

Summary: Boring and pointless pornography.
Review: Ms. Zavala's talent in writing is downright horrible. The characters' speech is dry, unrealistic, and fluffy. The story was just ridiculous. It seems like every other chapter there are long, obscene, and disgusting sex rituals that left me gagging... This also perpetuates a false look on Wicca and its practitioners. They do *not* run around having gratuitous sex with various partners of their coven at the same time to encourage magical growth. Also, spells don't have to be cast in the nude to ensure efficiency...Overall, the first quarter of the book is only somewhat interesting and the rest is a flight of tasteless oversexual fantasy, with a big fat "RELIGIOUS" label slapped on. It gets one star since it actually delves into the esoteric world, but if you want to read a better occult mystery, get "Bell, Book, and Murder" by Rosemary Edghill. Don't waste your money on this glorified garbage.

Summary: It's a "Harry Porter" for grown-ups! Great Fun!
Review: This is the kind of book you will want to read every single word of, without skipping anything. The main characters are so real and down to earth, with their passion for chocolate and a soft spot for stray animals, they could be living next door. The problems they face range from unpaid bills piling up and running out of toilet paper to sick children and abusive husbands; something most of us women out there can relate to. The writing style is amazing! The nightmare scenes are so vivid and intense, I had to put the book down several times, almost too frightened to continue. The ending is absolutely priceless! Great story!
