Rating: Summary: Great Find Review: Morgan is your average high schooler. Not noticed by everyone, not the most popular girl. That is, until Cal comes to town. He tells everyone that he and his mother are Wiccans. She does a chant along with a whole bunch of kids, and discovers she is extremly sensitive to energies, and is good at magick. But her parents are Catholics and against witchcraft, and she likes Cal, but so does her best friend Bree. What's a girl to do?
Rating: Summary: Wow! This is the best book! Review: This is one of the best books that I have ever read. It's about a girl named Morgan who not really noticed 2 her school. Then Cal transfers 2 her school. She's like totally in love w/ him since she first sees him, but one problem, so is her best friend Bree, who's used 2 gettin any guy she wants. Soon they find out Cal is Wiccan, and start going to circles that he leads, and plan to join a coven that he plans to start on Samhain (Halloween). During the circles, Morgan seems to feel more power than the rest of them. Then her parents find out, and are really upset, and tell her to stop goin to the circles, but she does anyway. Im not gonna tell ya the rest cuz if I do, then the ending wont seem as surprizin. So, a word of advice, READ THIS BOOK!
Rating: Summary: Good book-but what's up with the Seven Great Clans thing? Review: I enjoyed this book as it was a good story and left me wanting to know what happened next, but I didn't like how it mixed the real information about Wicca in with the Seven Great Clans fiction. I thought this would be quite confusing to people who didn't know much about Wicca, also I don't like the idea that there are certain people 'selected,' to be witches. I prefer the 'Circle of Three,' series to this, it is quite similar but more realistic and you can identify with the characters more. However, I liked this book and am looking forward to reading #2.
Rating: Summary: Blessed be!A riveting & compelling read.... Review: 5 Stars!!Why not 10? This is by far the best of the Teen-aimed-wiccan books you will read, looping authentic teen emotion and the wiccan world, hand in hand. True facts and playful fantasy are just what the recipe calls for in this book.Be sure to pick a day where you have nothing planned, and be prepared to gobble this up in one sitting! "Sweep" follows the life or Morgan Rowlands, the plain,all American honors student,who can be easily portrayed as insecure-unitl she meets Cal,a boy who plunges her into the world of magick,and surfaces the wiccan that seemingly flows through her veins. From this point on, the story takes a sharp turn and dares you to follow. Not a boring,slow or unneccessary moment in this series;Romantics will fall to their knees,and the doubtful will believe!! I have read all of the "Sweep" books in the series that have been published, and all have left me hungry for more. With more suprise turns than covens in Ireland, this will instantly become a favourite!!!!!
Rating: Summary: Couldn't Put it down, Highly Recommended Review: The greatest book seriese I've read, I couldn't put it down, Literally. I read it for 2 hours straight and never got bored. The way Cate writes is very realistic, the way the two girls communicate is just the way I talk with my friends, you can relate easily. Very realistic on the religion part too, Cate must have studyed the religion because its right on target. very VERY nice, I can't wait to get my hands on book #2 all the way to #11.
Rating: Summary: ONE OF THE BEST! Review: This was a great book! I got so into it I couldn't put it down. I read it in 2 hours. Its about these friends, Morgen and Bree. They are not that popular, but a new guy comes to town, Cal. He gets along with everyone. Bree wants to go out with him, while morgen had a secret crush. Cal has a secret, hes a witch. He regroups kids in to a coven to practice Wiccin. Morgen and Bree join. As they have circles every week, Morgen and Cal get closer while Bree and her get farther apart. Soon after Morgen finds out a secret thats exiting yet scary... What is it???!?!? READ THE BOOK!
Rating: Summary: The book that inspired me. Review: I really enjoyed this book a lot. Cat Tiernan is an awesome author. this book got me very interested in Wicca. I've now decided to look into it. I've read more books about it, and wish that I could someday be a witch. I'm considering in the future of joining a coven. Ever since i was little i was always intrigued with witches. Thank you Cat for writing such a great book. I encourage everyone to read it.
Rating: Summary: My Favorite Series....EVER..... Review: I would seriously stay up till 1:30 AM reading this because i couldnt sleep untill i dfound out what happened to Morgan. I have read 7 books from this series and am awaiting the arrivals of books 8 and 9. I have laughed, cried, and been frightened bby this book, but this is a must read for anyone. I, who am intensely interested in Wicca, found this book very informative, seeing how it was written by someone who actually practices Wicca. Seriously, people at school steryotype me and call me witch because i read these books.Im not gonna stop reading these cuz a few fools called me bad names!!! Its impossible!!!
Rating: Summary: What a disappointment! Review: I did not care for this entire series. It starts off promising but leads the reader into areas that are so off-the-wall that even one who accepts 'weird' happenings ends up asking themself "What was this author thinking?" It is obvious that the author has little (if any) real knowledge of Wicca and what it truly entails. I would definately NOT recommend this book or any book in this series to anyone looking for real information. If you are only looking for mindless tripe, then you might enjoy this trip into fantasyland.
Rating: Summary: Goddess! nuthing better than this book Review: The book was totally awesome! after i read the first one,i went out and bought the other 6 books and currently am on the 5 one. anyone would love this book, even if ur arnt a wiccan! BUY THEM they r worth it! lol ! peace out
