Halloween Town (Summerween #2) by Joss Wood Review

  Hey ForeverBookers,   How are you all today? I hope you’re well!  I’ve just finished reading  “Halloween Town”  by Joss Wood and I highly enjoyed it!  Halloween Town follows the same group of characters as Summerween, which I read in August. Poppy McMaster is the FMC here, though. She’s a runaway bride at the beginning of  “Halloween Town”  because she didn’t want to marry her fiancĂ©, Benji. Why? I’ll let you read for yourself. When Poppy comes back to Halloween Town after the failed wedding, she goes straight to Solstice Springs, her grandparent’s old lodge. What she doesn’t expect is to find Thom, her old friend, come love. Thom is also her ex’s brother! Can they work through things and be together?  I read Halloween Town for a few readathons, which were:  Reading Rivalry - A Sarcastic Sidekick - the ghosts in Halloween Town are pretty sarcastic, as is Luna the town major. Spoilers Below… “Solstice Deep was a cranky old bitch, but he...

The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna Review

  Hey ForeverBookers,   How are you all today? I hope you’re good! I’ve just finished reading “The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches” by Sangu Mandanna and I really enjoyed it! It wasn’t really a surprise that I would enjoy it to be honest, but it was very cute and had a few twists that I didn’t see coming! “The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches” starts with our FMC, Mika Moon, a witch getting a call from the mysterious Nowhere House, a home for wayward girls. They want her to help them with the three young girls they have there, Altamira, Rosetta and Terracotta in controlling their magic. They have had to hide the girls away for fear of their powers being discovered. While there, at Nowhere House Mika learns a lot about family, redemption and love with a certain young man called Jamie.  Readathons Spoilers Below… “It looked, frankly, like a small piece of heaven. “It’s beautiful,” she said simply. “Beautiful enough to move in at once?” ...

Dark Magick (Sweep #4) by Cate Tiernan Review

  Hey ForeverBookers,   I’ve just finished reading Dark Magick by Cate Tiernan and I LOVED it! It was a reread for me but it was sooooooo good! I love Morgan, our FMC. She’s a great protagonist to follow.  Reading Rivalry -   My Cabbages!  - I read “Dark Magick” for this prompt because I forgot how much I enjoyed it when I previously read it!  Spoilers Below… “What’s a shomar?”           “seòmar,” cal corrected my pronunciation. “It’s a private place, usually used by one witch alone, to work magic. Different from a place where you meet others.”            “Does every witch have one?” I asked.           “No. Quit evading the question. What did you think of  mine ?”           “Well, I found it sort of disturbing,” I said. I didn’t want to hurt his feelings, but I couldn’t lie, either. “After a while I wanted to get out of there.”       ...

Practically Magic by Jen Calonita Review

Hey ForeverBookers, I’ve just finished reading “Practically Magic,” a YA autumnal book, by Jen Calonita which I liked.   “Practically Magic” is an easy autumnal book to just sink into. I finished it really quickly - in the space of 3 days! We follow our FMC Katherine or Kat Hadley who’s family are witches. Witches are an unknown race in the town of Mystic Hollow, where the book takes place. The chapter headings were funny anecdotes about witches that I found entertaining. Kat’s mom and dad are to perform rituals on Halloween to keep the town of Mystic Hollow in balance. They do this every Halloween, unknowingly to the general public. Kat wants to prove that she can do these rituals too! Can she? Or do boys and other things, like her sister Harriet/Harry get in her way? I’ll let you read for yourself but it was very quick and entertaining.  3 Stars! I read “Practically Magic” for a few readathons, which were: Reading Rivalry - Confidence In Yourself No Matter What - K...

Enter Ryan, our MMC in “The Right Move” and things go from there…Indy wants children but was unsuccessful with her ex. Can Ryan be all that she needs? Or does she have to go the different lengths to get what she truly desires and more...I’ll let you read for yourself.  “The Right Move” is based around b...
