Paranormal/borrowed
The person I borrowed it from dnfed it, people on my friend list had dnfed it, and it was meh, but I wanted to see if the romance would pay out. BOOM! I got hit in the face, wtf happened? The romance part suddenly imploded. Was this not a cozy paranormal romance? Eh..ok?
Nope, now we are all about the curse because this is a family of witches. And oh no, grandma is dying and we are all doomed!
Boom! Bloody hell, that effing romance is back. I hate this romance. It sucked! What the heck was that?!
I honestly do not know what this book was meant to be. Paranormal cozy? Nope changed. Romance? Nope, changed. It was messy and it made me mad at the end.
Yes yes I should have given up, but I wanted to know.
Sadie Revelare has always believed that the curse of four heartbreaks that accompanies her magic would be worth the price. But when her grandmother is diagnosed with cancer with only weeks to live, and her first heartbreak, Jake McNealy, returns to town after a decade, her carefully structured life begins to unravel.
With the news of their grandmother's impending death, Sadie's estranged twin brother Seth returns to town, bringing with him deeply buried family secrets that threaten to tear Sadie's world apart. Their grandmother has been the backbone of the family for generations, and with her death, Sadie isn't sure she'll have the strength to keep the family, and her magic, together.
As feelings for Jake begin to rekindle, and her grandmother growing sicker by the day, Sadie faces the last of her heartbreaks, and she has to decide: is love more important than magic?
Sounds disappointing. I was tempted to read this, but I've seen a lot of readers who didn't like it.
ReplyDeleteYeah it did not work at all, it was messy
DeleteOh no, I hope your next book is a better one.
ReplyDeleteI am sure it was, I am behind on reviews lol
DeleteSometimes I'll do that - read something everyone else doesn't like. Sometimes I feel as they do, sometimes not. You can't tell until you read it. You tried :)
ReplyDeleteI did, I tried, at least I have that
DeleteSounds like the author had no idea what they wanted this book to be.
ReplyDeleteIt was so messy, it had an direction that changed and then changed and just no
Delete"Paranormal cozy? Nope changed. Romance? Nope, changed."
ReplyDeleteLOL! Books that mix different elements can be great, but they have to be consistent at least...
It was so messy, I thought it had a direction but then it got weird and I hated the ending
