This book is a hard book for me to
review. I liked it but I didn't love it. To me it was a cute read but
it just didn't grab me like so many books out there have done lately.
Bewitching is book 1 in the Kendra
Chronicles. We met Kendra in Beastly she's the witch who made him a
beast. Bewitching shows us some of the other people she has tried to
help over the years. Mainly it follows Emma a girl who is having
problems with her stepsister. So of course what is a witch to do but
try and help out the people that need the most help. Yet sometimes
Kendra's help doesn't always turn out how she wants in the end.
This book had the potential to be
great for me, but it seemed like it was lacking. The writing was good
and I liked the characters I just didn't connect with the story as a
whole. My main problem was throughout the story we get to read about
other people Kendra had tried to help through the years and it made
me lose focus on the story as a whole. I did like the retelling of
some of the tales we get to read. I also didn't like how some of the
characters were portrayed and how everyone was so quick to believe
everything the stepsister said about Emma. I mean come on here is a
girl you have known forever and yet you are going to believe
something someone that you just met recently said about her no
questions asked. I would like to believe that people would question
the stepsisters reasoning, but that's just me and I know there are
people out there who are easily manipulated. It just seemed everyone
who knew Emma was one of those easily manipulated people. Overall
this was a good read just not a great read for me. I will probably
read the next installment of this series just to see where the Author
takes Kendra next.
